Sub installation help?

Question

I have a regular cab chevy pickup and 2 Boston acoustic g5s how can I fit them also Im willing to remove the back seat

Answer 1

Those subs are huge... A lot of people likes to install their subs under the seats or behind the seats with custom boxes in trucks.  

Answer 2

ok go to a place that sells car audio and ask for truck boxes be sure to take the measuremens of the subs and they will help you

Answer 3

You will have to remove the back seat for sure.

Go by a car audio shop, and they can fiberglass a box for you that will fit perfectly where your back set was, as well as looking better than a standard MDF box from BigBox'R'Us.

If you really arn't wanting to remove the back seat, you can do a fiberglass box that acts as a center console for the rear seat, which will house each sub.

Your choice really.  Just take a while and draw out what you would like to have done, and then take it to a shop, and get a quote.

**I know one option that will be recommended to you will be a passthrough.  These arn't a good idea for several reasons.  Not only is the construction of these boxes extremely complicated (most shops don't understand how to correctly accomplish this task), but even when  done correctly, these systems never create the sound stage that is possible with in cabin subwoofer systems.  Pass throughs usually create port noise, which ruins the sound stage, and can be very annoying.

BTW, you're not going to be able to fit those subs in truck boxes, and even if you do, they are going to have too little internal volume, so your subs are going to sound like 6x9s.

Answer 4

several ways to install subs into your truck 1. if there is space under your back seat then get a custom box and place it there 2. if no space under the rear seat then try behind the seat there's boxes made for that space too 3. if no room there then you can take out your back seat and place either a sealed box or a ported box there. 4. if you like you can also have it installed in the back of your truck bed with a square port cut out going into the cab. also you would need a tunnel cover for the bed so no one can see it so it wouldn't get damage by the weather.
