Default Just got my amp and sub. A few questions.

I just got my Audiobahn 10" Piston Sub and Soundstream 35x4 + 150x1 amp.

The Audiobahn is 350watts RMS, obviously the amp is 150watts (Hopefully the amp is rated at RMS!!) will that cause a problem?

It should be easy right.. installing in 1986
I plan on running power from the left side into the amp, audio channels from teh right, and grounding the amp to the seat frame. Sound solid enough?

There is absolutely no place in my car to mount this damned amp. Unless... Can I put it in the passenger side (huge) storage bin? it's closed off, and it gets pretty damned hot in there. Please answer soon!!

No problem, I use a 2 750 watt subs with a 2x150 Amp. As for mounting I would think you might have some cooling issue in the compartments.

You'll be fine with the amp smash. The amp can't be mounted in the storage because it will overheat. What you may want to do is mount it on the box of the sub. Sorry I haven't been around. See my post in C4 general discussion.
