    shallow mount subs are what you need to be looking for. 10s tend to be the best fit, you can dig and find some 12s that will fit too though

    I'm a little surprised more here don't use the BM12. It performs well in a half cube.

    That looks like a massive magnet! haha. Looks like it would fit though.

    Im partial to the SD3 though, shallow mount with a lot of excursion.

    Are you willing to lose one or both of the storage bins behind the rear seats?

    It uses a 12 ring neodymium cluster magnet structure. It's shallower than the SD by a good bit - 3.4" vs 4.75" - so could fit in even tighter spaces. Yeah, hard to beat the SD3 though...great SQ, output and build quality & crazy cheap.

    hmm. may have to do some research on that sub. Honestly though, my next setup with be ported and with 12s probably.

    if i got these i could use the same amp i already have though.

    By all accounts I've heard the SD performs very well ported. You just have to watch the hard bottom

    need to figure out how big of ports these things need!

    I also have 2 sa10s sitting in the garage, need to get another car to put them in as they dont fit behind my seats.

    Yeah it's pretty compact for a 10" and has pretty decent sound for the price. I had the Kicker version of this before as well and I think this one has better sound quality.
