Question My amp is creating quite a bit of condesation on itself under my seat!!!

idk what to do...i have the amp mounted under the seat on the floor and the heatsinks are up...there is approx 21/2" above the one heatsink and 1-1.25" above the other...i thought that would be plenty...should i worry about it??? im thinking since it gets warm under there and its cold at night it probably formed over night while cooling down....i just dont want it to short out nor get the bottom of my seats damp and have them start to form mold or something....is it a big deal or no?? i have absolutely no where else to mount it since it is extremely large...around 251/2" long...and i dont have the $$ to get a new amp either...

Maybe run a small cpu fan connected to your remote wire to keep the air circulating when in use. Just a thought.
