If you have that sub box behind the rear seat are you still able to lift the seat up all the way, or just like half way.

Thats the only drawback, you cant lift the seat at all really. But, I just bought a color matched fiberglass tonneau i found on craigslist, so now I have a huge trunk, sort of. lol

I did like having that extra space to either store something small, be able to lift the seats to pack stuff in like luggage or whatever, but it's a trade off. I listen to my music all the time, and I hardly pack that much in the back.

The space under the back seat is worthless, IMO. Its just like the center counsol in the 40/20/40 seat or the glove box. You can fit a few useful things under there, but anything thicker than a CD case wont fit. If I lost the ability not to store anything under the back seat, it wouldnt be the end of the world. Just my .02

im pondering ripping the front middle seat out and fabbing up a box for a 10 inch sub there but iam unsure of how big the box needs to be or how to measure the inside cubic feet to make sure it meets the requirements of whatever sub i put in there lol

Egh....it's worth it I guess.

down here i got a quote for puting a sub under the rear seat! they would cut a hole out under the passenger side rear and build a custom ported box with amp, sub, wiring, install and capacitor all for the price of 1245.68 and this is a Thunderstorm sub i think...he played it in a truck with the same amp and a ported box and OMG when and if i get this Im my dakota OMG WOW be original and Unique
