If you do, go to the junk yard and look for 95+ chevy radio's they have small external 12 volt cooling fan on the back, similar to something you would find in a computer, I would wire two of them into a relay from the remote line from your deck, it will get pretty hot in there, and once the amp heats up enough, one of two things will happen, it turns off till it cools or it turns off for good.

Not sure how stealth you want to get, but we put a amp into a YJ a couple years ago and he was in a similar situation, we cut the floor under his rear seat and recessed it about 2.5" and put the amp in there, then we fabricated a cover to go over it, with the carpet over then, you would have never know it was there, even with the rear seat out. and yes, there were fans in there to move the air around and help prolong the life of the amp.
