*PICS* Rear Box seating/Best setup for two 12"s.
I have an 04' F-150 STX. I also have an empty box that can house two 10"s. The box is custom so it fits perfectly under the two movable seats in the back (by movable, i mean the ones that have the handle to recline them).
So i have a couple of questions about some things.
Seating: Seating is a big concern for me because i like being in charge. I'm the one who offers to take my friends places when we go out to the beach,restaurant etc.;because i don't like being dependent on a ride or anyone else for that matter. So I want my truck to bump a bit, but i also want to have the company to bump with me. So would having the box affect the seating? I know i should probabbly just take out the jack and see where it would fit but i can't seem to fine the right size to get the two bolts out? Anyone know which size?
Speakers/Setup: Now i have the box that,like stated above, that can house two 10"s. I want to bump where it sounds just as nice outside as it does inside. Basically i want to stop peoples hearts a little bit lol. Just so i can have my doors open at the beach and have people look at my truck when they walk by. What would be the best setup for the speakers? Some friends say kicker, Pioneer,Punch, Xplod; but none of them have any of these speakers so anyone have any personal experience with these? Or anything they recommend?
Now i don't know much about what is really involved with speakers and things of that nature, so what exactly are subs, amps, etc. I mean i know amps power them, but what would be a good amp. What are the purpose of the subs? And can i change the speakers in my doors?
Wiring: So if i hopefully get some help, where would all the wiring go? I'm assuming a professional would cover it up nicely. But a friend of mine has his wires everywhere in his car, and i want to keep my truck looking clean. I'm hoping he just did it himself or some **** idk.
But please any help on any of these topics is greatly appreciated. Any recommendations as well. And if you want pics on any aspect of my truck let me know and i'll get them up.

Problem
I'm assuming those are the measurements.
The box on its side.
The box.
Ok so the box fits fine...when the seats are up. I can't seem to put the seats down, and am wondering if the box isn't fit right, or if i'm just supposed to push the seats down.

And ideas?

sub's-www.dcsoundlab.com
mids/highs-www.ebay.com (look for phoenix gold rsd, kicker ks, re audio re' components)
you can get your headunit from ebay too, just remember to check the quality of the item, new/used, and check the feedback from the seller

fosgate makes good amps and good mid's and highs, there subs are not that great, kicker makes decent subs, and only thing from pioneer i would use is there headunits, the links i posted are some of the best of the best, dc is on top right now for subs, there amazing, knu wire is awesome, and some good components are all you need

Thanks for the help i'm definitely buying from there.
Any idea on how to remove that stupid little thing that mounts your jack and ****? I posted a pic in the OP.

So should i just start swingin at it with that tool one that goes Crrrk, Crrrk, Crrrk, with the lug nuts and other bits? Or let a pro do it, i mean there's a tool box in the garage and i've already tried most, but i'll look for a 10mm, it's just that there's barely any room to get even a quarter of a rotation my knuckles are all ****ed up from hitting the metal but whatever.
