I've got Bose in my 06 and I'm wondering if there's enough room under the console for my 2 Kenwood amps, there both 11"x 2.5"x 8"

Why not just measure it and find our for sure? But if you have the full console, I doubt it.

I looking into that route on my 01, which is essentially the same console with minor cosmetic differences like the lid and cup holder area. There wasn't much room under there once you got down to it. What it measured exactly I don't recall, but I'm fairly certain it was no where near the size you need

Didn't want to rip it 1/2 apart if someone else has already tried, ok, ok, I'm being lazy :?

If you don't have a factory sub, it might be possible.. but it'll be tight I've got my center console apart right now

The cup holder area lifts right out, pretty easy to get an idea of size from there.

I'm guessing the black plastic box is the Bose sub? That would go seeing I'll be putting in my own.
Thanks for the pic Chan.

Yes you are correct

Keep in mind you not only need room to mount the amp but space for it to breathe too. Otherwise you risk the amp going into thermal protection mode when it gets too hot.

Always worth mentioning, heat is your enemy.

I ran two auxiliary fans in my last close quarters installation of these amps even though they have a built in fans. I built a mounting rack and slid them into the end of my tool cabinets.
