What Mark said. The 06s still had the old style seats without the airbags in the side bolsters, so you should have plenty of room under the seat to mount and amp. I had to do some serious modification under my 08's seat to get my amp to fit.

Easiest way to do this would probably be to remove the seat when you're mounting it.

unzip the seat cover on your driver's seat and mount a piece of wood to the frame. Recover and mount the amp to the now hidden board. Cut holes and install grommets to run wires through if you want a clean look.
