Well after a long day yesterday, I answered my own question! here is my box with 2 JL 12 tw1 subs powered by my JL HD 900/5.
It's almost 1.4 cubic feet overall, perfect for these subs with 500 watts going to the pair. They had to be positioned together and close to the middle of the box because of the seat release handles under the seat.
Very nice. Did you end up building the box yourself? I've always loved tinkering with Car audio... But I lack the patience and attention to detail to have a decent install in my truck.
I run a single JL 13tw5 under the rear seats and it hits clear and hard. If you need more power, you could always install 2 of them since they're low profile
Perkac, how did you fit the 13tw3?! Does it stick out past the seat?
I wanted to stick to just that one amp and whats nice about the 12TW1's, they don't need much power. I bet your tw3 sounds amazing. Do you have any pics?
and White_DC, I started building the box and threw in the towel, and had my local shop do it for me in a day.

A fella at Custom Sounds on Burnet road in Austin Tx made it for me. There's a lot of F150s in the area, and its a box they're accustom to making.
It sounds amazing man. It pounds with so much clarity
Both set ups look nice. Is there any rattling? Is dynomat needed? I'm looking to adding a sub or two and replacing the other speakers. I'm thinking one sub and an amp will be sufficient for that ok looking for. I'm not looking to set off alarms in the parking lot, just to have my music sound good and complete.
I did dynomat on all 4 doors and the back wall. Prior to having two 12's, I had two 10's and had zero rattling, It sounded nice and tight. Now with the 12's the back sider rattles among a few other minor things. If you're going just one sub, just go with one 12. I'm bias to JL, but a jl 12tw1 doesn't need much air space or power to sound amazing. Or look at one 12tw3.
