Default help or ideas on lifting rear seat?

It appears that Atrend speaker boxes are not too honest on the mounting depths of their boxes. long story short, I need to lift/raise my rear seats to fit the box after i rebuild it.

Has anyone done this? I would love some suggestions on lifting the seats. BTW its a 2011 eco SCREW. thanks in advance

I believe LMI makes a 2 inch lift for the rear.

I just installed a fox acoustics box with a jl 10w3 and it sounds amazing. Joe makes extreamly nice boxes that are covered in bed liner material.

6 inch mounting depth / no seat lift required.

I shimmed my rear seat with washers and used thread lock on the bolt threads when I had an under seat box, but I only had to raise the seat slightly

I also just installed a Fox Box and am very very happy with it... Mine is in a 07 150 but its basically the same box... 6 1/4in mounting depth and .75ft^3 of air space I was able to mount a full size 10in Infinity Reference Sub (infinity doesnt make a shallow mount) and it sounds amazing... Heres some pics



I was sure that I would end up like you with the Attrend box (not enough room)...Plenty of room with the Foxbox without modding the seat The sub doesnt even hit the carpet under the box... I still dont understand how they did it

Here is a couple of pics, the fox box works great, Joe makes a very nice product. I loaded it with a jl w3v3-4 , powered with jl jx 500-1 and it sounds very accurate and hits hard enough to make your teeth hurt.
