How hard you're driving the amp also makes a huge difference in how hot it gets. I drive my front amp really hard - any time the volume is over about 60%, it starts to get pretty hot. My sub amp, on the other hand, is almost always cool-to-room-temperature.
I had originally planned to mount my front amp under the seat, but it was too big. In retrospect, I'm glad I didn't because it probably would overheat. A less powerful or more efficient amp might not have the same heat issues.
