I have to say that mounting under the seat is ok in some cars/trucks but not all.
I have my PC mounted under the seat of my celica and wanna hear something crazy? I even have it powered off of the stock radio harness (OH MY!) connected with a 3ft custom harness I built. (I can disconnect the carpc in about 3 seconds and install a regular radio back into the car in about 4 min total) Each car is different, so for some it might not work while others are perfect. The 90-93 celica came with the option of system 10 wich included a 220w amplifier under the passenger seat with a simple t harness to power it from the car radio harness (no other power source and it was rated to draw about 30a) My little Jetway with the M1-ATX doesn't draw near that not does my Super monitor and after cutting the carpet a little under the passenger seat the PC case fits right in without hitting the seat!. I have been running it this way for months now with no ill effects.
So my point, not every car has the same solution and under seat mounting may be optimum for some.
