I was looking to put 1 or 2 10 inch subwoofers in my 2008 and heard there was an enclosure that fits under the second row seats but have not been able to find it...anyone know of one? Also I plan to keep 3rd row seats folded down most of the time and want a fairly stock look... Any ideas for a fairly inexpensive enclosure that would work well for this? Even a larger enclosure that can be moved and fit behind the 3rd row would be fine.
Thanks for your help!

To my knowledge no one makes an under the seat enclosure unless your thinking of an all in one sub like this Clarion SRV250 Theres just not enough space and the fact the seats fold down. With an enclosure theres no way they would if they are anything like my '99 second row.

The Stealth box is a good option for the stock location and a single 10

U will have to get the jl stealthbox...anything under the seat will have to be custom...not enough room with the levers for the seats to fold up and down and it will need to be shallow mount subs...L3 from kicker and rockford makes one

For the first gen, use the 1st gen one. For the second and third gens, use the third gen El one.

I replaced the stock Sub with a Kenwood KFC-XW800F. Its a slim line Sub that sounds great and fits in the Stock space.

Warren, did you just add the sub or did you do an amp too? If so what amp did you go with and did it fit in the factory location?
Thanks

U won't fit an amp in the factory location with the sub in there...the factory amp is like 5x5 attached to the sub enclosure...a couple of us have put aftermarket amps in there...I have a huge power acoustik 6000d mono amp in there...

A few only changed the sub but I believe there are extra wires to the sub

Depending on what amplifier you go with, you can actually get it to fit back there with the Stealthbox. I'm using a HD900/5 that's crammed inside my dash under the radio.

Class D amps that have enough power to run that sub are getting smaller and smaller.
