    Too many to list. See build page. Link in signature
    OPs box is almost identical to the JL Audio Stealth box except that is two 10s. For those asking about more details and box dimensions, If you go to JLaudio.com and find the stealthbox for the double cab tacoma, you can download the PDF instructions. It don't believe it gives exact dimensions, but it does show detailed pictures for how the plastic has to be cut. This box shouldn't be very difficult for an installer that does custom enclosures often. The stealthbox has a bolt that comes off the back of it and you drill a hole in the back of the cab wall, then secures the box with a washer and nut on the outside. Pretty much theft proof. Here is mine so you can guys see what I'm talking about and maybe get an idea how OPs box is made.

    I really like the behind the seat setups, any issues with the amp getting to hot or do you guys keep the seats down most of the time ?

    Are these boxes and subs designed to be used with the seats up or down? I understand with the proper mods the seats will fold up and lock into place. But doesn't that muffle the woofer??

    Here is my behind the seat setup. I removed all the plastic and had a custom box made to fit the JL 13TW5-3 sub behind my seats. The amp is a XD 600-1. It sounds incredible, I'm really happy I put this in there. I have listened to all kinds of music on it from Country to Dubstep and it handles all incredibly.

    i understand that... my main question is do you ride around with the seats up or down? if up, is there any muffling of the speaker sound?

    What are the dimensions of your box? How much air space you have? Wanting to build one soon. Let us know how it sounds.
