Need Some Advice

Hey all,
I'm new to this audio stuff. I have a reg cab pickup. Theres not alot of space behind the seats and I was wondering if I could put some 6 3/4" subs back there. The specs on the subs I was looking at required .1-.32 cuft sealed space. How big would the box be for this sub. I was thinking about using 2 of them behind the seat.

heres a link to the subs I was looking at

Thanks for the help....

You can fit 10" subs behind the seat no problem.

i dont think 6 3/4" woofers will be good for behind the seat. might wanna try some 8" woofers. u can get a decent pair of 8"s for cheaper and still come out on top sound wise.

You can easily fit some 10's behind there. I think you might be disappointed with 8's.

8's, 10's, and a few 12's can fit behind your seat. Take measurments behind your seat to see how much room you have.

What I was thinking about was using 2 6/34 subs firing upward. I have about 9in behind the seat (with it fully back) at the floor. I really dont need an enormous amount of bass, I just want some more depth. If I put a 10 in which way would it fire, forward?
Sorry to be such a newb, just tryin to figure this out. Thanks for puttin up with me.

A ten would definitely provide enough "depth". A 12 would be even better, for both sound quality and SPL (hey, we all like to crank it every once in a while...

)The sub would fire/face forward. Go here Cool Truck Boxes to get some box ideas, or you can buy directly from them. They do provide measurements for the box...
