Mini Amplifier for door speakers

As my other topics have said, I'm trying to keep my install as clean as I can. 6.5 components all around in the factory spots, but I don't want to run a second amplifier front to back, or run as little extra wires as possible. Only two that I can think of that could work would be the Alpine KRP445 power pack that would tie in post-headunit, and the Soundigital mini amps, but I don't know if it's possible to still get them. Any other recommendations? I'd like to find one small enough that would fit in the dash somewhere, at least around 100w x4

POTATO!

Stay away from both of those and get a real mini amp to power them with, something like an arc audio but mount it under the seat with plenty of room for it to get some air flow while keeping the wiring to a minimum. Placing an amp in the doors exposed to the elements is not a wise decision as the water coming in the door is possible and ruining your day damaging the amp.

Installs are only as clean as your willing to make them, it takes time, effort and some creativity to make something look like a factory install.

He'll no, they aren't going in the doors. I just don't want to run a ton of wires, makes working around my emergency lights a PITA.

My bad i thought it said doors instead of dash. lol

I had the alpine and it was no better than the factory h/u power, so i would scratch that one.

Just not a fan of the micro amplifiers.

Me either but I don't have much room to work with as is. I'm barely able to fit 3 SD-2 10's behind the seat, trying to find room for it's amp and other stuff is going to be tough as it is.
