Aftermarket Amp Locations

[Nickv1214]

I have a 2019, 5.7 ETorque, and today I decided to remove everything to access behind the seats to see if I could maybe move my 4 channel amp and sub amp behind the rear seats . As of now, I have both amps taking up both sides in the floor cubby’s . I really want the space in the cubby back but I noticed this 48v Battery Box on the driver side , for all this ETorque stuff so I would only have enough room to mount the 4 channel amp .It must be a little easier for people who don’t have the 48v battery box because without that it would have been a real easy job . Just looking to see what other people have done or any other ideas

So I have a JL 1500 mono block mounted on the passenger side and I have saw people who had a smaller one mounted under the rear seat on the flat portion of the floor.

Yeah I tried messing around with my 1800.1
Mono kicker on the passenger side but it’s just too long to really fit it , the 4 channel would fit on the passenger side no problem though .

So they fit in the cubbies currently but won’t fit on the back wall anywhere?

I ordered the Fox, dual 10" sealed setup, I will be mounting the amp to the back of the sub box. You should be able to mount your 4ch where the factory sub would go

Yeah with the 48v battery box there is no room behind the seat . The. 4 channel amp will fit no problem but the mono amp no way .

I have the fox box for dual 12s and there is no room to mount on the back of the sub box . The back of the sub box butts up with the floor .

What cubbies do you have these amps in currently? I guess that’s where I’m confused.

I circled both locations in red ... driver side I have the 4 channel and passenger side I have the mono . It’s not the end of the world but being I have no space under the seat to put anything because of the sub box losing both storage spaces in the floor kind of sucks .

Oh yeah that sucks. So the longer monoblock one wont fit under the longer seat portion either?

Yeah that was going to be next hopefully this weekend I can get to that . Really the only option I have hopefully it fits on the flat portion but it’s definitely going to be tight . The 1800.1 kicker is definitely a “ longer “ amp and not that slim . Fingers crossed on that location

CXA 1800.1 2”x14”x7”
I’m going to give it a try under the seat . I wish that 48v battery box wasn’t there because I could
Of mounted both Nice behind the seat and been done . Is that battery box only a ETorque thing ?

 

[Nibis]

So, are you wanting to do something like this? This amp is installed where the factory sub would be if you had the Alpine or HK system

Yes, the 48v battery is for eTorque

Yeah I can easily fit one there no problem . I have my processor under my driver seat so that’s fine . I was just hoping to get both behind there not just one . I’m going to try and lay the second one flat on the floor and mount the other just like that

 

[Nickv1214]

What did you use to mount the amp ?

 

[Nibis]

Good luck, I just got done installing my Pac Amp Pro, RCA cable, Remote wire, and 4G power wire, so I'll be ready when my Fox Box comes in.
