2nd gen reg cab sub behind bench seat

Well last night got a little boring. So I decided I was going to build a sub box out of the scrap 3/4 mdf i had laying around for dual 10" to fit behind my bench seat. Ive only completed the back board as of now. Got to get more mdf probaly sometime this week. But here are some specs on it.
1. I started out by removing jack stand, seat tethers and middle seat belt. Be sure to not remove these with strong human force, or you will have a hole in the back of your truck. Trust me. I would use some sort of dremeltool blade to cut it out. Or possibly drill it out if you dnt mind a few .1875" holes in the back of your rc.
2. I cut the back board to arch with the floor 47"L 11.75"W. It wouldnt go into place like something in the floor was obstructing it from fitting. After peeling the carpet back, I notice a verry hard putty/cement like raised in the floor. Not really sure what that is but it wasnt covering anything.. So I went about chiseling at it with a flat head and it busted right up.
3. After I got it placed, I built a notch for the tether bar to sit in. Extrudes out 1.5"x2.5"x1.5". I then cut my last back piece 47"L x 6"W.
4. After dry fit, i finally glued and screwed everything and she fits good and tight. I know it isnt much right now but im pleased with the little outcome I have.
Questions I have: Ported or not?

 

If you have the airspace, go ported but 2 10s ported will need generally 2-3cf of air space depending on which subs. I doubt ported would work optimally

 

Thank you. I was guessing I would need more airspace. My cf will approx be 1.5 . And 1 more thing sir, would you divide the box in the middle or use all the airway for both subs?

 

no reason to divide them, just eating up more air space

 

Agreed, shared air space will be more optimal. But I would recommend a brace in the center.

 

Depends imo, how much power he's gonna be running but yes, can simply toss a wooden dowl connecting the middle of the 2 big panels together

 

Yea Im panning on a 1x1 brace front to back.
And honestly, I do not have any knowledge as to how much power I would really be hitting. Kicker cvr 10 x2 is whats being installed. Any thoughts on shallow mounts? Doing the regs but thought about doing shallow's.

 

if you can fit a regular motor topology behind the seat id do that over shallow, but thats my personal preference. There is literally only a very small hand full of shallow mount subs id use.

Next, you mention the subs but nothing about an amp.

 

Righhhhtttt... So yea i have subs and in process of building box. I dnt have an amp as of right now, but as soon as im ready, i hoped to have a car audio shop wire and point me into the right direction on an amp without them hoo-dooing me.

 

We have more than enough people here to guide you through the process if you'd feel comfortable with that
