What size are those? Model #? Pretty sweet. Can you move the seat all the way back with that in or does it restrict the seat adjustment?

well its actually a MTX Thunderform box that came with MTX subs, not JL Audio... but I found a guy who was selling just a box... bought it for $75, then bought the 2 JL Audio 10" W0s for $100

Don't the W0's call for more airspace than the box offers??

They should be okay. I think that a W0 needs .5-.9 cubic feet of enclosure... so two would need around 1.8 which is the specs for the box... The only thing with smaller enclosures would be a limitited frequency range.. i.e. they couldn't hit the 20-30hz range.. but JL audio is designed for tight spaces so they should sound fine.

I have the same box and subs. Sounds great. Only thing I didnt like was that it didnt line up with the toolbox bolts so I had to cut those and put new holes in the floor for the box.

Does the seat still move all the way back? Where are your/is your amp(s) mounted?

when the box came to be, there is some foam padding inside the box... is that supposed to be in there or is that what previous guy put in there to take up some airspace... wondering if i should take that out or not

It is probably fiberglass insulation. Keep it in there.. It will make it sound better.
