Default Amount of space under integra seats?

I want to stick some stuff like amps and other stuff under there, anyone know the WxLxH of the space under there?

If you have an amp there, what size is it, on the larger end of the amps.

I couldn't tell you the H*L*W but there's not much room under there. Plus they aren't very easy to get to or very good circulation for the amps.

yea, i know the space is limited. Ive seen a few people cut out the metal kidge/hum thats under the seat. Thats probably a somewhat vital part of the frame, but it cant be all that important. Also, the circulation cant be that much worse under the seat as oppose to the hatch are when its mounted to the back of the rear seats.

I wouldn't do it. Heat is the number one enemy of solid state electronics. The bottom of your seat is very confined, and the use air conditioning will be inadequate... especially when you turn the heat on during the winter months.

I couldn't tell you the exact length x width x height under the seats but I was able to fit my Alpine 4 cha amp (i think the model number is MRV-F407)....under there however I ended up moving it to the back because everytime I'd have rear passengers w/ wet feet (rain outside) I'd get scared that the rain water on their feet would blow out my amp or that they would kick my amp not knowing its under the seat/under the rear floor mats... even if you warn them people forget or sometimes are careless...

also watch out for the sliders and other mechanisms under the seat scraping/scratching or hitting the amp...

I moved mine to the rear hatch/behind the back seats so no more worries about passengers kicking it, wet feet, spilled drinks, etc..

Anyone seen any clean amp mounts on the rear seats? I dont feel like putting holes in the back of the seats to mount them and so fourth. Want to create as little visible damage as possible.

damm, if a ps2 fit under there you can probably stick a midget under there too.....

A shield can be put to protect people from kicking it and a few quiet CPU fans can be installed to pull the air around it.

I have my amps mounted to the backs of the seats, and I have done several installs like this. It leaves very little damage because you can rough up the material on the backs of the seats to cover the screw holes if you remove the amps.

If you don't want to touch the backs of the seats, I'm sure you could build a rack (angled with the back of the seat when it is locked back) that mounts to the floor, maybe using the seat belt bolts. Maybe something that also doubles as a strut tower bar in the back that'll also hold the amps?

putting amps under seats are a bad idea, they won't have enough ventilation.
