Re: Rear Seat
I don't know but I suspect it's REALLY close to the dimensions of some of the sub boxes members have made/purchased.Rebel-Chevy wrote:does anyone know the measurments(space) behind the rear seat?

I made a box that was 4" top tapered down to 8" on the bottom @ 13" tall and only a 1 and a half ft long (outside wood to outside wood) so it factors in the 3/4" thickness of the wood. But it didn't fit too well as the sub adds another 3/4" to the face of the box.
But it could work for example If you are looking to gain a small amount of space behind the rear seat I did it rather easily. I put a regular 12" clarion sub behind the seat in a custom made box.
Unbolt the seat 2 behind the seat back and two in the front holding the bottom down. Then two on the floor. Just add about 4 washers (just enough so you can still thread the nut) and you'll be adding about 3/4 an inch to behind the seat. Just enough room for a regular depth sub! I just had to shave a little wood off because the magnet hit the back of the box. Drill holes and you can bolt the bottom of the seat back down as well or slip a smaller bolt through the leftover hole w/ washers. I also removed the plastic backing behind the seat just held in w/ clips and pulls right off adds another 1/2". You can also remove the plastic casters that the seat latch grabs on to. This will have the seat lean forward just a slight amount not noticeable but it will latch sooner so it doesn't go as far back.
Hope this helps!
