I got a custom fiberglass box made fo my second row seats and used shallow mount kicker cvt's hooked to a stealth alpine 1000 watt amp. Hits excellent I am very suprised. If your interested I could speak with Car Audio Warehouse here in Charlotte, NC about getting more made. I am thinking bout getting some more work done but dont know where to put more speakers at that would be out of the way and hidden. Any Ideas??? Thanks guys here are some pics.

Love your ride man, now I know what mine would look like with lights on it. Here is a good place to put more speakers. You would have to move your amp. mine is under the seats. if you pass threw Rose Barracks, Vilseck, Germany on a tour look me up (SCOUTS OUT)

im interested to see how they sound, its such little airspace i cant imagine it sounding as good as throwing a box in the back.....but its definitely a sweet setup

ehh it sounds pretty good. But you are right they told me that if I just put a box in the back it would be louder due to the airspace.

I like the thought of the speakers under the seat but having that set up prohibits you from folding down the seat back as it will hit the speaker assembly.

i looking to build a box that fits under the rear seat for my shallow mount pioneer 12 inch.

thought about getting a 2nd and putting up like what is posted above, but think it would require too much work than im willing to put in right now.

no way i would give up my cargo area for the tri mount.
if i was doing competition or shows, different story.

interesting amp mount, would think the heat of the amp would cause damage to the plastic.......i have a angled box that takes up very little space in the back with 2 kicker L7's.....the amps both under the back seat and installed a heat shield so when the seats fold down the heat of the amp doesnt damage the leather...im happy with my setup, pretty basic but sounds fantastic and really doesnt add any inconvenience....and no i dont have pics but will take some tomorrow

Yea the Apline amp is built to be used in small spaces and can even be stacked 4 high to reduce apce. I dot know how it doesn't get to hot. I mean it really does get warm at least. Honestly I never though about laying my seat backs down lol. Wow I guess I wasnt thinking and it would have been more space effective to build boxes over the wheel wells. Hmmm. WELL girls really like sittingback there lol
