    Fiberglass can work, you just need to make it somewhat thick to keep it from flexing - rounded contoured shapes will help make it stiffer. Avoid flat panels, they will flex much more easily.

    Seems all the prefabs are only for the 2015 and below. Can't find many for the 2016. That quad 8 on first page is amazing.... Anywhere I can buy that? haha

    anyone seen a box like the with just 2 subs? I have a single 10" JL Sub
    now. How hard would it be to get 1 more sub and link the 2 of them
    together in 1 big box?

    I'm looking to get a new double cab in August and researching upgrading the stereo 'cause I opted out of the jbl system.

    2 questions I had:
    1) Does anyone have a link to wire harness so that I can wire in loc's that I already have? I don't really want to splice any wires
    2) For you guys who have the subs behind rear seats, do you always have a seat folded down when you're playing the system with the volume up or do you run the system with the seat in the up position?

    Here's what I'm using. It looks like it's made for the truck, and is a very affordable option for someone wanting to add some thump.

    You have to be careful of the two vents on the back wall. The 3rd gens are the first model to have them there. I had @Mr Marv build the boxes and amp rack for my 2 10s. He was very reasonably priced even with shipping from California. The build quality of his boxes are 2nd to none.

    I have detailed instructions for the harness on my build thread post 131. It only will work with the entune WITHOUT JBL. The links are at the bottom of the page on my thread along with speedwire.

    I always have my seats up and my two 10s provide a pretty large amount of bass. I was actually really surprised and pleased. My last car I had a JL audio w6 so I'm used to a lot of bass.

    Will 1/2" ply birch be sturdy enough for a Jl 13tw5 install behind a 2016 double can seat?
