2007 new body gmc 1500 system

[ebmx66 10+ year member]

I just got a 2007 GMC 1500 with the new body style and have a couple of questions......

Anyone know what mounting depth the subs need to be or what will work?

Also, i need help picking out a system......

I want to get two 10's either Rockford Fosgate or Audiobahn that are about 600-800 rms should I get 2 or 4 ohms?

What ohm mono amp should i use with these.....i was also thinking about getting two amps and mounting them on the ceiling if thats possible.....but getting two amps will probably be more expensive?

im pretty much a noob at this and am trying to understand ohms and subs as best i can but was hoping you guys could help me out

thanks

aim to run at 1 ohm. 1k watts would do nicely. SSD 12, Q, SX, anything.

pics of truck?

Actually i don't have the truck yet.....i know a guy that owns a couple of gmc dealerships and he is getting it on an online dealer auction tomorrow so i should have it soon......just trying to plan some stuff out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Budget: Probly about $400 on subs (ebay) and im not sure what the amps will run me tryin to keep the total w/ amps and subs under $900 maybe $800 if possible

Billabongcr: not really interested thanks though

but like i said ima newb so wut ohm subs and amp should i get i don't understand the ohm thing very well at all

both my subs and amp to my door were about $800 and they dont take much room to get loud.

2 Fi SSD 10's. each sub = $199 (with flatwind coil) shipped.

and any decent 2000d amp

just a suggestion i can vouch for //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

ya those fi's look nice but all of them are over 6" in mounting depth and im not sure they will fit under the rear seat even though im not sure where im going to mount them yet......

i was thinkin about choppin up the middle seat in the back and mounting them on that.......one on the seat bottom and one on the seat back

anyone seen someone do that before?
