decided to fit a sub into the boot of my ibiza cupra.
doesnt seem to be much space for this or any holes to put it through easily.
alternatively could i use the 12v power output in the boot to power the amp?

Try this how-to from Pete's site:

do it the way Icecavern says. NEVER EVER use the 12v output in the boot you will melt the wire.

Personally I would run 4 gauge wire down the car and use a distribution block to bring it down to 8 gauge for the amp. This should then offer you the chance to expand your system at a later date.
