mount it to a wire harness under the dash. Find a thick bunch of wires and zip it up there.

I personally never mount mine under the dash unless you cant reach it by hand. Why bother because a theif will be able to disable the system in seconds and there is not really any good spot under our dash that i have found to hide the brain well enough. The only thing extra you will have to do is extend the wires to the dash. I also uses a seperate power source since if you power it from under the dash you can easily see the connectors and would be disabled easily.

you have to make sure that the amp is not bolted or touching the case to ground, because that is not always a good scenario, it should be isolated from ground (the amp heatsink/case)

A pretty good place is above and behind the glove box. Kind of tough to get to and it makes for a clean install.
