    Hey guys. Working on planning out my system and really hoping I can fit my amp under the passenger seat. Anyone have any pics of their 5 channel mounted? I know ********* makes a mounting bracket but didn’t know if the 900/5 would fit. Help!

    The HD 900/5 should fit.
    The RD 900/5 im not sure but id imagine it might.

    I dont have any pic but i had an amp that was a little bigger than the hd under my drivers seat and a second small one there too. It was a challenge getting both under there while keeping the wires properly routed.

    I'm running a hd900/5 under my passenger seat.
    James at tech12volts made me a amp rack to mount it on. There's some pictures in my audio build page (link in my signature).
    You can probably fit a Rd in there but probably not much room for a sound processor if you are going that route.

    I used the sticky side of some industrial strength Velcro and stuck it to the carpet. That sucker won't move.

    I just installed a JL VX1000/5 under my passenger seat using the ********* amp mount. I did have to drill new holes in the mount but it worked out perfectly. Plenty of room to spare. I think the ********* mount was well worth the money.

    The RD900/5 fits under the passenger seat, no problem.
