In the boot is the obvious place, but they can be put under the front seats, under the dash, in the glovebox.
Depends on the size of the amp tbh mate.

would you just run the cables under the carpet then i take it? if you dont amp up the components, is it possible to run both the speakers and the tweeters through the crossfader?

no problem i think i might just do that!! ive got a set of 6x9's lying about so i might just sell them to raise funds for a bigger amp. would i need a 2 channel amp to run 2 subs and the components? ive got a 1000w kenwood amp at the moment no too sure how many channels its got though.

2 or 4 channel amp for the comps (4 channel will be bridged) & mono block or high powerd 2 channel amp for the sub
or high powerd 4 chanel amp - 2 channels for each comp, and the other 2 channels bridged for the sub
1st option is miles better

i think at the moment i am using both the channels for the two subs, can i use one channel for both the subs and one channel for the components? or would i be better getting a 4 channel amp? cheers
