i'm gonna see what i can do about taking the carpet up and taking the sponge filling out. That should give me the option of fitting any amp then...

no it wont, as there is a large metal bar, that is part of the chassis that runs under the seat. You would need to cut this out, and i would not advise it...

4 channel, but y 2 sets of comps...
All you want from the rear is fill, so you DONT want rear comps, rear coaxials would sound better.

ah ok, in that case then would it be better to run them off the head unit? Or have them run off the amp as well?

get them amped, then u can use the crossovers to cut top end trebble out of them, and set there gain level lower so they re fill sound.
Wat speakers u going for?

yeah there not bad and wud match the amp, if your not using subs in the boot m8, id go for the comps up front and 2 x JL 6W0 6" subs in the rear door cards.
That would sound very good.

Not a good idea to have an amp mounted upside down.

^^^ this was what i was thinking, it's going to go under the seat, i'll make it fit
Failing that, in one of the door cards, only problem is it'll be near one of the subs.
