    In a double cab its tough to get one 12 or one 10 in it. Most people run two 8's and a box that goes all the way across behind back seat. Theres a couple guys running shallow mount 10 or 12s. But the speaker is big $$$$.
    Under one of the front seats with a shallow mount powered sub is the easiest. Sub and amp all in one.

    Best answer I've heard in a long time!!!!!

    Seriously... I built a box that mounts a 12" driver and installed it in place of the rear seats (I have a 1998 Tacoma). I used two "L" brackets connected to the bottom front of the sides and the box's mounting surface to keep it in place. I've driven the truck over a lot of very bad roads over the last 12 years and the box has not budged. The box is about 28" wide and about 12" high. The sound is great! (I'll hafta take some pictures of the setup soon, 'cause I'll be selling it along with the amplifier.)
