Mouting Cooling Fans

Okay so this is a follow up thread to my original thread about the dual amplifier install. Here is the picture of how my amps must be mounted because they both cant be mounted flat because of the amount of room on rear of back seats: (Both amps when doing the fan installation will have carpeted wooden boards behind them.)



Better picture of 4 channel:



Here is a picture of the two fans I just got today in the mail:



I want to mount these to look as neat/clean as possible. I'm going to put a fan on each amp. Where should they be mounted considering the way the amplifiers are mounted? Also considering can't use screws to keep them down what should I use to keep them secure?

Detailed help is most APPRECIATED!

Thanks in advance all. Hopefully after this job i can finally not have an overheating issue once and for all.

Re: Mouting Cooling Fans

the heat is causing the sticky side to become less adhesive, best bet is to find screws or clamps that require screws

Luckily, in the spot I mounted the fan, I was able to find one spot where I could get a screw into metal and believe it or not, the one screw seems to be holding it there really well. thanks for the help to all!
