Custom sub boxes *extended cab only*

show off your custom sub boxes in your extended cab f150 looking to put a 12" shallow sub in my f150 but i also want to put 6x9 speakers under the seat... with the speaker boxes from futureshop... wedge shaped to fit slightly under the seat... is this possible? thanks

I don't have pix, but the sub box I have for two shallow 12"ers takes up all the space under the rear seats (and then some, sticks out an inch or two), so I'm doubtful you could do both. Plus now my jack is floating around back there.

well i just decided to go with a 10" shallow... its just easier and i can get a pioneer 10" 1200watt fairly cheap so i think im going to go with that. i jus thave to find a box that will fit right in the middle where the hump is that has .35 cubic feet of space... im not sure if i can make something like that or not

I made my own box to go behind the drivers seat, It came out pretty well. I need to get some pics of it all done...



The sub looks small in there, but it needs the airspace.

This was the first box I built.. took up too much space though. Kicker L5 tuned to 33hz.

I modified the center seat to get the cubic foot volume I needed without the box being too tall...

I wanted the sub facing the back because I have kids and didn't want them poking at it

I'm gonna ask why do you wanna put 6x9's under the seat, why not just upgrade the door speakers?
