Not really many options, I've seen it on the plastic panel that divides the cabin from the hatch. Some behind the seats on the plastics of the rear bins, etc.

Looking for some suggestions. I have a four channel amp I need to install. Battery is in the rear bin behind the passenger seat.

Pictures are appreciated.

Thanks!

I used the spare tire well. Made a piece of 3/8" plywood fit the area and wedge into the rear of the chassis. I could have made a hold down using the spare tire mounting boss but it wedged so well I didn't need to. Thinking about selling the amps and ply and starting over with a smaller amp mounted behind the battery.
An amp would have to be very thin to install under the stock seat of a FD.
