Default Amp mounting location?

I used to have my two amps and a capacitor mounded under my back seats just by some wood screws into the carpet...

Last night I tore out all my carpet and getting ready to herculine my floors and I'm drawing a blank on how to mount my amps. It would be nice if I could attach them to the bottom of my back seat somehow or even to the bottom of my center console/drivers/passenger seat.

Any ideas would be great, I'm hopefully going to have this project done this weekend so I'm not driving to work on a 5 gallon bucket.

Lend new meaning to the term "Bucket Seats"......

Under the center console? (to the bottom side)

Are you going to put the carpet back in? If not.... (and maybe even if you are.....) what about welding some tabs to the floor, in the right spots for your amps to mount to?

Or, possibly even to the back wall of the cab?? (keep 'em up out of harms way there....)

I just mounted an amp under my driver seat. I drilled two holes into the seat rails and mounted it on them. The seat can still move forward and backwards.

I have mine mounted under my drivers seat, with a single sub under the passenger. I wanted to mount a sub under the center section but the rollover sensor is there and I didn't want to mess with that... I also contemplated mounting the amp to the bottom of the rear seat but there really isn't much there to mount to, unless you were to tear into it and fab some brackets or something... I had pics of it all but the uploader I have used for years went **** up.... :/

The carpet isn't going back in and thanks for the ideas so far.
