Well I finally got the fox box and put in an old Kappa 100.3 paired with a Rockford P300. I can't imagine what two tens would sound like. Thie box is great quality and fits well. Amp went where the factory sub was located. With my perch mod, this is another must do, now done.

Can you post pics? I'm debating the fox box and with 2 alpine type R shallow mounts. Looking for a speaker that can handle 600RMS and that doesnt have a deeper mounting depth than 6"?

allow me to chime in here, you should be able to fit 12in woofers if you get a custom box. i am working on a fiberglass box right now for an older toyota pickup single cab for behind the seat. every other shop this guy went to said they could only fit a 10 there. i disagree, this box fits perfectly behind the seat and i was able to port it. you should really check with a reputable stereo shop about getting 2 shallow mount 12s under the rear seat. if the installers are good they will know how to build a good box that fits. if you were at my shop we would probably charge $500 to $600 for a dual 12in fiberglass box. but thats only if you want to go that route. once i get my truck (hopefully by the end of the year) i will be building a box like that under my rear seat, so you guys will have an idea as to what i am talking about. i will post pictures of the toyota box i am building so you can see how a custom box fits when built right.

Not going to happen without lifting the seats. They have a jl stealthbox for our trucks that has a 12w3 but thats the most u can go. You can do 2 JL which are basically flat/shallow W6s. They're also $600 a pop & run them on the Jl 1200hd amp. I'm going with 2 Rockford Fosgate 10" P3 shallows ported. The 13tw5s are too wide & will stick put from the bottom of the seats so that's why I'm going with the 10s. Also I want ported to get lower notes & 12s ported need too much cubic feet & wouldn't sound good in an undersized box. I'm also going with the Rockford T3 component sets for my highs. I did alot of measuring for an under the seat box without messing with the seats. You can do W0s pr W1s as well but you only have roughly 5-1/2" top mount depth for a downfiring setup. Forward firing keeps you down to 8" subs due to the seat height limitation. Your best bet is either 2 JL 13TW5s(but theyll be sticking out a little), 2 shallow Kenwood 12 XRs not ported, or 2 10" Rockford P3 shallows ported. If you can find some stereo integrity mkIIIs then get them but good luck finding them. These are your best boom for under the seat downfiring setups. I was going to do a fully custom dual 12" Skar VVX setup but my upholsterer is backed up for half a year so I'm not doing that anymore & sold off my subs and amp for it. I've changed my setup a dozen times already.

The alpines are poo dont get them. Their shallows are crap. Their regular type r on the other hand is legit.

Gotcha. I'm thinking of ordering the Fox Box and going with W3's. I spoke with Fox Accoustics via phone contact and they did in fact verify the 3's will fit for our applications. 2-10's powered by 600 watts RMS each, Will this be loud and sound good? I like dubstep and the typical radio rap/R&B.

600 watts each is a bit much. you only need 300 watts for those speakers. so a 600 watt smp can run both of them

JL 750HD would be good for 2 W3s, but the only issue is it'll be a sealed setup. That's a tight bass rather than a deep bass. I want ported & I believe the W3s need 1.75 cubic feet per sub ported & there's def not that much room under our seats.

Was gonna go with that but talked with nosbusa, I think you'd be happier with the setup I'm looking at now. Supercrew Sound box with 12's pioneer shallow mounts and rockford Fosgate amp. The 12's may not be as loud as the 10w3's but it'll give you deeper bass
