    Default Install Sub Woofers in Chevy Colorado Crew Cab

    I want to install either two 12" or three 10" subs in my truck but I have no idea how to do this. I have the '06 Crew Cab but I still cannot fathom how they would fit without a custom job. I want to keep my back seats vacant for passengers and not spend a lot of money on a custom subwoofer installation. Has anyone got any ideas?

    Here are some speakers made by Blaupunkt that I've heard some good things about. They come in 10" and 12" and only have a 2.2" mounting depth. They should sound pretty good as well.

    Should be able to find a good set of speakers out there just about anywhere, just don't be afraid to get some good quality ones.

    I agree with virtualboy2k2
    thats what im doing to the homies truck since im doing his interior with Katzkin leather so he wanted 2 - 12inch sub so the way to go is lift the bottom back seat 2 inches and build the box somewhat under the seats....

    The best thing I have seen that would fit your need is the JL audio 10W1v2. It has a mounting depth of 4.34" and the 12W1v2 sits at 5". It is 150W@4ohms. A friend of mine that works for a local audio shop says they do pretty well. I think those are the most economical choice coming in at around $100 per. I don't remember off hand what the available space is but I believe that it is around 5" with out raising the seat. However, I'm not sure. Good luck.
