Default Amp Install Location - C5 Vert

Hi guys, was looking for some suggestions on where to install Kenwood X700 Amp. Trying to preserve as much space as possible in the trunk and also concerned about heat dissipation. The unit is 13 inches wide, 8.5 inches deep and height is 2.2 inches.

Will be connecting a sub to it initially but plan to upgrade the rear and door speakers at some point.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

If space is at a premium for you, maybe right behind passenger or driver seat depending on how tall you are. where I have my seat and I am just short of 6 foot tall, it could fit behind my seat. I would probably opt for passenger seat though as I don't car as much about passenger, LOL.
