Default 6th gen, amps under seat?

Has anyone been able to fit an amp under either seat? (driver's or passenger's) I have a coupe and was wondering if this has ever been done before, it seems a little tight down there.

Mine fits under the passenger seat. It fit fine with both my old manual LX seat and my new power leather seat. It's not huge though, RF 250, just drives my single 10" JL.

would you happen to have it's dimensions handy?

and how exactly did you mount it? there's a "bump" on the floor that runs horizontally across the middle of the seat..

After looking closer at it, it's the 200s, but anyway...
It looks like this but smaller, this is the 400s:



I couldn't find dimensions for mine, but here are the dimensions for the 400s, mine looks the same but is shorter, I would guess the depth and height is the same.

Without Endcaps: Height=2.489", Depth=9.8125", Width=8.8125"
With Endcaps: Height=2.489", Depth=9.8125", Width=12.8125"

Here is mine in the car:


To get oriented...that black vent in the upper right is the passenger vent under the seat.

So is mine, to the right of the picture is the front of the car. Straight up would be the center console.

how do you mount it on the back seats? I was able to do this with my 4th gen accord but with my 6th gen I have a little compartment that can open from the backseats to the trunk. under the passenger seat seems the best place for the amp.
