    i was thinking about doing thus but i have yet to find a single post on this topic, some suggestions would be awesome and pictures even better. i was thinking about mounting a sub in the space under the backseat on the passenger side nothing major just hoping for a little more sound

    Nothing major.. new Pioneer 3 ways front and back, Alpine HU w/ iPod connect.

    Have you checked the Audio section of TW yet? There's all kinds of info there on everything from self powered subs to cover-the-entire back seat setups.

    I have Polk speakers front and rear. Front was a pain to install, had to cut a bunch of plastic from the inside of the door panel to get speaker to fit.

    I have an amp under front passenger seat and 10" JBL sub that I just put on floor behind passenger seat. Plenty of room for passenger seat to go back, easy wiring to sub from amp, if for some reason I need to torcher people and have them sit in back I just unplug sub and put it in the back of my truck

    actually i have started to do this is my truck. i have pretty much the whole box built, i just need to coat it and make it sound tight. the only thing stopping me is going out and buying the sub.. heres a pic of what i have so far.. actually its a little bit further than this right now.

    alright will do. i still haven't gotten around to buying my sub yet so that is why the hold up on it. Also eventually i was going to put red or blue LEDS in it. and Cage the top of it. I was going to run a slim sub probably a 6" or 8", just depends on cost and how much i have to spend.
