2-10's will fit good behind your seat. Right now I have two in one box. Make a box or boxes like 2006 and have the subs on the lowest portion of the box, so you dont have to scoot the seat up. 12 inchers usually need more backpace, or have more backspace. I have a 12 inch audiobahn that has 5" backspacing, so i would have to have a 7" wide box at least

That whole thing behind my seat is actually one unit, but each speaker has its own box with the amps in the middle.

Solo barracs makes some nice 8's i think. They got lots of range and power with a good amp and a good box. Looks tiny, but packs a good punch.
1 or 2 of those behind the seat and the right box, and a good amp should give you a good roundabout sound.
If you want a backrub, JL makes a really thin sub, i can't rmemeber which one it was that I had picked out for my 91 though.

I'm personally thinking of sticking my subs in my rear speaker holes in my truck.
they might be 6x9's, but hey, fabrication is a good thing right?
