Looks nice and you did a good job. I'm not a big fan of having the sub up in my face like that though. What is the total volume of the box? How is secured to the truck? Or, is it just sitting on the seat?

On a side note, I wish I was able to afford losing rear seat space, but I can't. I would love to put a 12" or 2 in my truck. I just perfer the sound of a 12" over anything other size.

Thanks for the compliment. The box actually has two straps that attatch to the steel seatbelt hrings. It has zero forward movement less than an inch side to side movement.

I was also concerned about the imaging of the sub with it being so close. I wish i could say i built this box but the credit goes to Micha Williams from Audio Specialist in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Were lucky to have him here he was voted as one of the top ten installers of the year last year.

He is building a smaller acrylic "reflect shield that will mount directly in front of the sub to take up some of the air space right in front just to make it image a little better.

Trust me this thing pounds.

I also wanted to add, ive been coming to these forums for a while now, just mainly browsing and not alot of posts. Just wanted to say you have one of the best looking trucks ive seen so far.
