Default Screw "Stealth" Stereo Upgrades

Just got my truck back from the car audio installer with a new 10" in a closed box and an amp installed behind the seat. Truck is an '11 Lariat Screw. The amp is completely out of view "stealth", but the subwoofer is tightly wedged under the single back seat "not stealth". Sounds great, so no complaints there, and I really have no other great ideas on where else it could go. I've seen some super shallow boxes and other powered subs that look possible. Just curious if anyone's done a bass tube, powered sub, or other. Pics?

I wanted some slack to be able to move the box over or fwd if needed. Also, I can just reach my hand far enough behind the seat to adjust the amp settings.

I'm just surprised the shop sold you a box with the wire terminal on the exposed side. I'm sure it's fairly obvious even when the seat is flipped down.

I can flip it around and take another picture if that helps you. My question is not what people think of the install job, but if anyone has a setup that provides similar bass, in a cleaner, more compact, out of view, and most importantly, something that allows for more floor space. I do appreciate your concern, however, if you have nothing relevant to contribute, beat it.

Check the audio sub forum...there's been several people who got those Sound Ordnance 8" self powered subs and were able to install them under the passenger seat or behind the rear seats. Those would probably be your best bet for clearing up your rear floor.
