Any ideas on a sub box?
I'm really wanting to upgrade the sound in my lightning. I've seen one premanufactured but by a junk company, and seen one in a lightning at an SVTOA event built into the back wall. Any ideas?

My only suggestion is have a custom box built. My buddy did his own, and it's the best looking box I've ever seen.
He has one 10W7 in the sub box and his seat still adjusts all the way to the rear.

i have a 99 4x4 ext. cab, i know my truck is different than urs , i just happen to see ur post and thought i would tell u what i did, maybe it will help, maybe not, idk. but anyway, i built my own box after getting the dimensions that i needed from the speaker box. I found a speaker from pioneer, 10" woofer, that only needs like 3" of clearance if i remember correctly. Pioneer made it just for trucks, to fit under the seat, and it hits Hard, has a good warranty with it, they would replace it right over the counter. I have a thousand watt amp bridged and she takes it with no problem. Everyone is suprised with my small box how great it sounds, and very clear !!

yeah, i dont see why not..... just a few more wires into the mix and your in..... are you going to keep the factory radio or add aftermarket ?? either way you will have to buy an adapter for the stock or rca plugs for the aftermarket but its not brain surgery......
