Default where to put subs?

i got a 95 cheyenne ext-cab with the 60/40 split in the front and a full bench in the back.can anyone give me some ideas or pics of where u guys installed urs? i dont want a box just sitting on the seat. i have 2 12's in a box that i can use but i want a clean look..maybe build something else and use 1 or both of the 12's..anyway any ideas would be great...thanks

you can buy a box made for the truck... it fits under the back seat but i believe u gotta take the jack and all that out from under your seat.. when i was into speakers and all of that they were about $100...check craigslist...or maybe ebay if they dont screw u from shipping..

yeah it will fold... you will have to push it up..mines a b!tch to do... have to use both hands most of the time..folds either way..the back goes down or the seat goes up..

im not sure if anybody on the forum has any installed on a ext cab like your doing... you might try cardomain.com and also now that i think about it..i think instead of a box..i think they make the box in your seat..so your seat is part of the box..that way it looks cleaner and it doesnt get in the way..im not 100% on that tho.. i tried doing the same setup as you are going with and i cannot remember
