Under seat subs

Greetings. I have been searching high and log for a small under seat subwoofer solution.

Its for a 4 door 08 4x4 tacoma. I have seen the offerings by scosche and JL but am looking for something to replace the rear underseat storage.

Anyone get creative with this area yet?

Thanks

 

wow great pic always wanted to know how it looked under there

 

I've seen a couple people fit a couple 8" subs in there with a custom built enclosure.

 

I think i might do the same seems like a pretty good place to put them i was just getting ready to sell my two ten enclosure to put in a three ten enclosure but just cant find a place for the amp

 

Thanks for the replys. I think this would be a really trick place to put some subs.

Even a couple/few of the JL 6.5 inch woofers may be a killer addition.

 

Has anyone tried one of these mounted under the front passenger seat? Will it fit?

Digging this thread up...I assume no one has tried to get one of these closures under the seat? Looks like the box is 5 3/4" high when laid down flat. Never really looked to see how much space is under the seats. Guess I'll have to check. Imagine i would be very tight if it even was able to fit.

 

I really doubt it'd fit under the front seats. Not sure about D-cab backs though. There's not a lot of room at all under the front seats. Keep in mind, they move back and forth so you're really limited. I think some alpine PDX amps would work under it but not an actual sub box. Easiest way is to get a tape measure out

 

Yea I hadn't previously looked under but just eyeballing when I went out a bit agothere isn't nearly 6 inches of clearance that would be needed. Really don't want to take up any space in the access cab, guess I could give up the space right behind one of the seats if I find I really want a sub. Really wanted a stealthy install under the seat though. I know Kenwood used to make an amplified sub for fit under seats that might have fit. But that's been discontinued and I question how good it would have actually sounded.

 

Would this not work under a front seat? Hope it'll fit. I ordered one. I just wanted something to give my low-end a little depth.

So... anyone figure out what/any subs that'll fit under the drivers seat?

 

I fit an Infinity self amplified sub under there, kenwood makes one as well as sound ordenance from crutchfield lol I think I may have butchered the spelling. they don't compare to a dedicated sub and amp but adds a nice amount of bottom end base that the stock set up is missing. im happy with the way it turned out. minor modifications required

 

I'm running a

$190 Sound Ordnance B-8PTD 8" Powered Subwoofer

Sound Ordnance B-8PTD Sub under my driver's seat.

 

I have a Kicker Hideaway sub underneath the passenger seat in my Access Cab. I removed the lower cross bar and it fits perfectly. Sounds good for an 8" powered sub, when combined with the Kicker KS speakers all around, as well as a Kenwood DDX9702s headunit. All the upgrades together as a package make for a completely different sound than stock.

I opted for the passenger seat since there was HVAC ducting under the driver seat on my truck.
I have a post here with links to everything, if it helps you out.

Have one under the passenger seat as well, and the seats are mounted with 1/2" spacers which helped.

 

I had HVAC under my passenger seat, I just pulled it out haha people in the back can suffer from cold feet hahaha I also had to flip the metal cross bar and move the airbag clips to the top of their little hanger thingy doo dad

 

Where did you get the 1/2" spacers? are they still working with no issues?
