Where to put amp for Thunderforms?

I just bought two JL 10" subs and an MTX Thunderform for my L. I am wondering where you guys with these boxes are putting the amps. (By the way I already have my midrange amp under the passenger seat.) Any help would be much appreciated.

I put mine under the pass. seat.More for the "stealth Factor" than anything else.Lots of guys mount them to the back of the cab between the seats.

Thanks guys. I'll try both under the center hump and on the back wall and see which one I like. That's why I check this site every day, Lightning people are the best people in the world.

I actually was able to fit an MTX amp under my driver's seat, as well.

I haven't had any heat related issues with my under-seat-mounted amps. There's all kinds of thermodynamic convection going on in the cab. Thats what the heatsinks are there for, right.
