I have a 2008 Toyota Tundra double cab and having problems completing my system because of the limited space under the rear seat. Want to keep everything stealth.

I have my frontstage done:

On both sides, Morel Elate 3-way 9's and Elate 2-way 5's in kickpanels and a 5 in the center channel powerd by Zapco 1000.4 and a 360.4.

Right now I have (6) Pioneer Premier 8" subs powered by a Zapco 1100.1 that sound so good for rock, alternative and everything else, but missing a lot whn playing hip hop.

I only have 5 inches total depth, 3" inside of box, 3/4" x 2 for the box and 1/2" movement of sub.

Anybody have any options for me. I am not shooting for spl, more focus on SQ but want good deep bass too.

I am not wanting to rip one seat out and put (2) 12" Morel Ultima. I am maybe thinking of (3) JL 13TW5-3 slimline subs powered by a Zapco C2K 9.0. I know they are not out but with that much clean power maybe they will maintain SQ but also be able to hit hard when necessary.

 
Well I'll be dang.....I saw you over on TundraSolutions.com and posted...

What is your internal dimensions of the box and cu ft. That would help out on determining your best setup.

 
Yeah there is a lot of good info and people at Tundrasolutions. That is where I picked up the mod to have seat back flip-down to mount/access amps... Nice trick!

I have about 2.25 cu feet space for box is around 52 x 22+some if needed x 5.25. Can maybe get more or less. Could add spacers under seat to add around 1" depth, making the box 6.25+. Looking to do a sealed box that can get loud with deep bass but matches the clarity of my sq frontstage.

One option would be the JL Slimline and the first one coming out are 13" is what I hear? But they are pricey and I would have to run a .75 ohm load from my Zapco amp.

Another option would be (4) Pioneer Premier 12's with the Zapco C2K 9.0 with 2200 watts.

Any other options?

 
I was talking with the installer and to get what I want we are going to pull the back left passenger seat. Fab a box that has either (2) Morel ultima 12's or (1) Critical Mass UL12 powered by a Zapco C2K 9.0.

I know I will lose one passanger seat, but it will be easier keeping an eye on my friends having -1 friend in my truck. Sound good or any other sub suggestions in a 12" or 15" that can keep really good sq?
