    No problem..you said you couldn't find a stock box. I assumed that meant prebuilt.

    i was looking for a cheap box as it is hidden behind the seat, 100+ for a box that is not mdf is imo a waste of money. MDF has a better sound imo!

    Not to be a smart ass, but isn't that what tape measures are for? Just flip down seats and see what room is available. I just built one for my access cab, but I unbolted and removed all rear seats.

    there is none that i know of so you will have to measure, cut, measure more, cut more, rinse and repeat. I built a box for 2 shallow mount 10's in the back of my 17' and i took out all the seats and made each piece one at at a time because slant to the seats and the brackets

    Use cardboard to cut out a template for each of the 6 pieces that form a box and tape it together for a test fit. Now you have your shape - measure and build it.

    Perhaps while digging through the garage to find a tape measure he found a custom sub enclosure of the right size?

    Or maybe he got stuck behind his rear seat while trying to measure. Do you think there are any safety latches like trunks have back there?

    Oh my god, I got it. Fill behind your back seat with spray foam. Close the seats, remove the excess, and let it harden. Then you have the exact measurements when you remove the spray foam.
