One suggestion:
If you're not going to have the stuff "on display", as they say, you might want to find a way to mount the crossovers closer to the speakers.
That way you'll only run 4 speaker wires all over the car instead of 8.
It's nice to make a cool-looking mounted setup with the amp/ crossovers etc. but if you're just shoving it under the seat it doesn't really matter anymore.
I mounted my crossovers in my Targa in the front trunk and then I had to try to feed two speaker wires through each door jamb etc. and now i wish I had wrapped them up in some cellophane and snugged them in the bottom of each door. I don't need to see them or access them.

I was thinking the speaker boxes would sit on the backs of seat backs. Was planning on putting little spikes on the bottom so they didn't move around too much. And I'm the opposite of on display! I never even stuck the MB Quart stickers on the speaker grilles. The less attention the car gets, the better.
If I mount the amp under the passenger seat, there may be enough room for the front crossovers too, or I could mount them inside the speaker boxes I need to make, or on the back, not sure. My 84 Targa had the crossovers under the seat but I mounted the JL in front of the HVAC in the front trunk. That was a lot of speaker wire.
