Default Subwoofer behind super crew back seat

The original system in my truck was pretty weak. So I added four r9's in the doors and wanted to add a subwoofer without losing any floor space. I looked through forums and didn't see anything on anyone putting one behind the back seat of a super crew, just noticed people putting amps back there. However look no more I was able to get the 10" Rockford shallow subwoofer with the shallow box back there. I ripped out the lining back there and it fits perfect and sounds awesome. I will post pictures to tommorrow.

Here is a couple pics.....

It worked out awesome, I wanted somthing but I didn't want to spend a lot of money and wouldnt have to spend a lot of time on. Got the sub and box for $100 on Amazon and used a carpet knife to cut the liner. Took about 20 min in total.

I also posted a pic of the amp I have it mounted under the passenger seat, fits perfect and dont lose any space.

Amazon Amazon

Here is the exact box and sub that I used, it doesnt hit the seat at all there is just enough clearance. I havent turned it all the way up yet to see what it can do because it says to break it in first, but I dont think it would, there is a good inch to inch and a half at the top. The only thing I havent firgured out yet is that I am unable to put the seats up because it hits the box, but I am not to concerned.

Yeah I wish I could. I live in MI and its freezing out right now so I dont want to mess with it, but I am sure there is a way I could. Also, that is the smallest box that I could find unless I wanted to go down to like an 8. I suppose if you are a do-it-yourselfer you could make a box but I really didnt want to try that. I spent a ton of time putting the CVT 6.5 Kickers in my door and they sounded like crap, so I wasnt wasting anymore time.
