Good subs for underseat install?

I have a 03 screw, Which subs do you guys think would sound better in an under the seat install, JL Audio w3v3 12's or Kicker L5 12's? Or do guys have any other better subs ideas for this install?

Which will sound better is completely subjective to your front stage and install skills
What speakers do you have up front?
What kind of/how much Amplification?

I having a shop use 2 10" premier pioneer shallow subs under the seat in a custom box the owner of the shop said those hit harder and clearer then the JL audio subs. Hes been in the same shop location for 26yrs he a very nice and knowledgeable person who used to normally specialize in diamond and JL but hes praising the new designed shallow premier's. Hes knows its a BOLD statement.

I have pioneer 3 way front and back with pioneer tweeters in the front without a amp, gonna get a 4ch amp soon, and i have a power acoustic gothic series 2200 watt amp running some old subs behind the rear seat, but it doesnt sound all that great behind the seat so thats why im getting an underseat setup.

Im going to throw out some names you've probably never heard of, these subwoofers are known to have excellent sound quality and will fit under the seat.

Image Dynamics 10" IDQ v.2 (5.25" mounting depth)

Elemental Designs 10" 11kv.2 (5" mounting depth)

Dayton 10" HO Reference (5" mounting depth)

I have some AudioBahn AWC10T subs that fit under the seat on my 2000 F150 Extended Cab that sounded really good. I snagged them for a prett good price searching the internet too.
