Boxes with deep mounting depths
I'm looking to run a single 10" subwoofer in my 2000 f150 SCAB. More specifically an Alpine type R. Problem is the 5 7/8" mounting depth. The box over at supercrewsound.com is too shallow, they have a mounting depth of 5 7/8" but that's for 6" magnets.
Does anyone know of a single 10" box that fit under my rear passenger side seat that would house this sub?

I only make a dual sub box but it has 6.6" of mounting depth.
Heres the link with pics and specs.

Not to threadjack, but...
Can you open the mounting holes on that box up to 9.25"? I'm looking to put a pair of SSA Dcon 10s in it and they call for a 9.25" cutout. The clearance and airspace are perfect for those subs though.

Thanks for the reply joe, unfortunately the space under the rear of the driver's side seat is important for storage for me. I don't want to steal your design but it gives me a general Idea of what to do as it looks like i'm going to build my own. If you don't mind me asking, what thickness of mdf should I use and what is the plate that you use on top for getting the extra space. (I take it that it should be non ferrous so it doesn't attract the magnet of the sub.)

The holes are cut to 9.15" There is plenty of room to enlarge the hole. You can either sand it out with a drum sander on a drill or Dremel tool or trim it a with a jigsaw. The jigsaw would probably be the fastest and easiest way to go.
The box is .625" MDF and the caps on the top of the box are .20" ABS plates that are glued with liquid nails and screwed with 1" pan head screws.
