Yes, Yes, Yes ... I do have pictures! When I get them back from wallyword. Then I will learn how to post them on here! In order to get'em in, you need to cut the plastic trim in the back corners of the cab ( square them off) The box will cover the missing trim and you get and xtra 2 1/2"s to work with. Also, I had to shorten my center console by 3"s. (so the console would not hit the box) because the box goes from the floor of the truck to the roof. The top of the box is custom fit with the back glass so it gives a custom fit look. As for amps, not in the cab. NO MORE ROOM! So being that I never use my tool box, I installed my amps in it. The amp rack is motorized and rises out of the tool box. Cools as ****! But since I own my own shop, It took me over 6 months to design, build and install my new system. My old system can be seen at

Jason,

Good-looking truck and system, thanks for the link. Looking forward to seeing the 4 12s in that monster…

Thanks! The box you see in the link is ready for 12's also. I could have cut the 10" holes bigger and installed the DEI Comp X 12's. They also take .66 cu.ft. (Disp. included). So its really not that hard.

I had two w7 in a box behind the rears seats firing down and it hard, but you are not going to get the sound that you get from a full size truck or a Bmw. The speakers take up a lot of room and need more air space than we have in the cab. These speakers also take a lot of power (1000 watts) to hit right. Don't cut the cab, I have seen a lightning with a big box ported thru the cab and it did not hit harder than my system. I took the box out so that I can redo my system so that I don't loose the leg room. I have all Jl audio and a kenwood kvt 911 head unit.

Here is a link to my completed box. You should be able to fit the same box in a regular cab with mods to the seats.
