the rear cluster bolt would be too far away from the amplifier.

I would either choose the seat belt buckle bolt.

Or do what i did and drill a hole in the boot and bolt the ground there. If you choose this way, make sure you scrape off the paint, must be a clean contact with the metal.

why would it be too far away? ground cables are usually a metre in length atleast.The amp even if screwed to the back of the rear seat would still fit.

Ground cables ideally are supposed to be no longer than 1ft (12 inches).
