Depends on how far you are willing to move the seat forward. Those have a very deep mounting depth. Airspace is most important and very limited in our trucks. Those subs may not be the best option.

I wouldnt bother with JL.

basically It depends on Amps, And money as to what sub to get.

Also personal preference.

You can easily fit Illusion Audio ND15s back there. They are only 4" deep which for a 15" sub is ludicrous. I had planned on going with a single ND12 then decided to move on to a pair of the 15s in my '03 L but due to no longer having use of my CNC and welder I am having to go with the Thunderform. I am also having to sell my ND12

from what i have heard the JLs dont need that much air space.
I was planning on running the 2 JL 12W6v2s with 2 500.1 JL amps.
Im just trying to figure out if they will fit with very minimal seat room loss.

Im also switching to sparco tornio seats, i dunno if that is going to give me more or less room

I was going to do 3 JL audio W6v2's in my truck so if I could easily fit those, two is no problem brother!

W3's but there basically the same size and the W6's require less space too!
