Default Idea for xcab part in my truck

Ok. I am at a dilemma right now. I have an extended cab and was stuck with a couple of ideas.

1. Build a custom sub box to house 2 10" or 2 12" subs amp yada yada yada...but to go from side to side and sit flush below the window line . This will hide the jump seats and fill up nicely. Of course with some curves and not just a square box. Which will yield NO space to hold much of anything except some jackets etc. Mind you subs will not be visible on the outside. Everything hidden and of course secured where it will take all night to get out. Outcome, WOuld need to get a tonneau cover evidently.

2. Just replace the 10's I have with another set of 10's and keep a low profile style box that can be removed with ease (with handtools of course) so I could use the back for storage if need be. It would serve a purpose but look bland.

3. Ditch the entire setup and get a bass tube. This will free up tons of space and just give a little kick.

4. Just buy 1 10" or 1 12" sub and build a standard box for just one and place in the middle and be bland.


Whatever I can decide on evidently I would like to do a center console. Not sure on custom or one of out of a mini blazer/jimmy...... Would like everything to flow well on the inside. I like my music and like something different. But like to use the back if need be.

No matter what I would like a little sub in the truck. SO that is why I need help. Remember. I do have the focus for family so that is no big deal. Plus Abigail is not big enough l to ride in the back anyways.

A blow through. YUCK!



Mike. Dang. I should have expected that from you. Seriously, she is still in a car seat (not big enough to upgrade yet) and plus she must face rear. Well a carseat is not going to fit back there LEGAL
