    I have the JBL, but would like to replace the passenger side ONLY with a custom aftermarket sub and amp set up. (Considering there isn't much room there anyways) I love and have to have the extra storage space on the driver side. (bungee cords, flashlight, TP, misc items) So I will not remove all of it for a sound system. I am not looking for ridiculous sound, just a little more than the JBL sub is willing to give.

    With small kids in the back seats, I'm currently not storing anything back there -- most of my emergency supplies are in my tool box in the bed. Maybe once my son stops trowing his damn milk bottles around I'll start using those spaces again, but for now it's a no go.

    I use it a lot, cleaning "wet" wipes, bungee cords, tire repair kit, shop towels, ARB strap, shackles, etc.

    One thing I never use because it's not electric is the rear sliding window on the Double Cab

    Yes, I use all of it.

    I keep a tool kit, my tow straps, fix-a-flat cans, and a few other things behind the larger half of the seat and a medic bag behind the smaller section of seat.

    Under the seats I keep trash bags (used to line the seats and floorboards after getting out in the mud) and a change of warm dry clothes.

    I'd rather have the storage space. I've even considered taking out the stock sub.

    If I didn't have two car seats strapped down, I would be using it more. With the car seats there, it's a real bitch to get to. So I only have items that I would absolutley need if I got stuck or lost in the woods.

    About every compartment in my truck is filled:) Under back seats is tow rope, jumper cables, stock jack, hammer, wrenches, screwdrivers, couple shirts. Behind the back seat I took the plastics out for way more room and I have a socket set, stock JBL enclosure, 3 wadded heavy coats, knives, flashlights, .22 rifle, 870 20 gauge, ammo, and hunting vest :cool: Center console and door pockets are filled with hats, leather gloves, first aid, and sun chips :D I really need a toolbox because I also have two huge pairs of snow boots on the back floor as well as a 3 foot shovel and massive artic mittens, plus I want to put subs behind the back seat eventually. That is all.

    Most of the stuff I do have I store on the driver's side only. Straps, rope, a med kit and a few tools. I've been thinking of getting a tool box and adding a system though. But that won't be for awhile.

    I loved having that space before I added 2 subs and an amp there. But it was mega-useful. Put all kinds of cleaning things, food, etc. Now that its gone I just use the weather-guard box in the bed as my "trunk". Even allowed us to hide things back there. heehee

    I took the plastic out so my rifles can fit back there when I go shooting, other than that, the space is usually empty.

    Guess I'm the only one who stores his back seat headrests behind the seats. Those things really restrict your vision and can easily be put back for passengers.
