Default Amplifier Question

First off, I have a 98 Ranger. Second, Is it possible to install amps underneath the front driver and passenger side seats? If so, is this location enough ventilation for an amp. If no, what is a recommended location.

Thank you

Easy to raise your seats an inch or so. Your amps should be fine there.

Spacers under the legs/brackets and longer bolts.

Where would I be able to find the spacers, or are they custom made?

Thank for your help and sorry for all the questions.

Lots of heavy washers that fit the bolts will work fine and you can use them in increments to get just the rise you need. You can then take the bolts somehere and find longer bolts with matching threads.
