Question Need idea for subs

I have an 05 Screw, bought a grille, 7" flip out deck, smoked head/taillights, and now i need to move on to the bass factor. My previous ride was a big yukon and subwoofer space was never really a problem. Now it is and I want to put 2 10's or 1 12 or whatever under the backseat. Problem is I allready have 2 pheonix gold xenon 400 watt mono amps, I want to use both of them one on each sub but most 10's can't handle 400 watts rms and the ones that do will never fit under my backseat. Someone please give me a good idea into some subs with that amp combo. And I'm into alot of bass in my yukon before I had 2 15" Solobarics in huge 6 cubic foot ported boxes so i want something that can atleast give me that feeling again.

The best I found was 2 10s, sorry

you could always make something that would work, but you will have a hard time getting enough air volume in the box under the back seat.

welcome the the site by the way!

I love my JL audio 10 and they make a box for the Super Crew to fit under the back seat.

Thanks for the idea's, Yea I''ve checked out supercrew sound and i don't think their boxes are what i'm looking for. those type-r's look pretty sweet but they have a 6 7/8inch mounting depth and i have just under 6" of depth. Which model jl audio 10 do you have? It sounds like the only way i'm going to be able to get what i want under that seat is to buy a seat lifting kit. Do you think it's possible to take out a portion of the back seat and use one of the entire back sides for like a w7 box? Anyone ever heard of somebody doing something like that? And also i was thinking it would be pretty trick to mount the amps on the interior ceiling of the truck, do you guys think its possible to do that safely somehow

Well since its a split seat and you want to be rid of part of it anyway, Why not jsut fold up the larger side and use that whole area. There is enough room for 2 10's 12's or what ever there. No cutting or modification needed
Then if ya trade the truck take out the box and fold the never been used seat down.
