Also what do you guys suggest for sound deadening? is any of the amazon stuff any count? I can tell im going to need it already. Probably should have just did it while everything was apart. I think I have everything pretty well dialed now but still sounds a little flatter than I'd like. I know the sub will help but I think i need to add some deadener. If nothing else maybe just in the doors.

Is that a ported sub or closed? I am sure now that I bit that apple, I will be looking to replace the amp and speakers and put a sub there. I Like that install and the storage on the sides is a nice bonus, wonder how two subs perhaps smaller behind each seat would be and a storage unit in the middle?

The passenger side cubby is easy to reach for small storage items. This was my first sub box build. I thought it turned out great. Here is my build thread that I started when I was building it.
