I'm thinking maybe there is enough room on the opposite side of the factory amp and subwoofer but I have yet to pull that side off. My only problem with putting it under the opposite side is tuning the amp is going to be a bi*ch after I close that side up and I don't want to tune it at like 10:00 or 11:00 tonight when I finish up. I don't think my neighbors would be happy. Maybe I'll intall it but not fully put my HHR back together untill after I get it tuned. I'm thinking a little too far ahead untill I actually figure out how much room is under there anyways. If that doesn't work I'll probably fall back on the storage area under the shelf.

I'm devoted to getting it in tonight. 
I've been stalling long enough.

Here is where Jaydogg put his amp, I need to find out if I can fit the Infinity 6 channel here laying horizontally...I need to install it with some way of being able to quick disconnect in case I need to access the spare...
