Default Removal of rear seats...

Has anyone done this in a CC? Like, I am thinking about removing the rear seats entirely and making my subwoofer box there, but only behind the drivers seat. I know how to do it, but my question, if anyone has done it, is this, when the seat is removed, back and bottom, is the wall behind the back to the seat flat? Or is it contoured from where the seat sat in there?

If anyone has any input tell me please. Thanks

its kinda like just a hole back there...it looks really bad without the seat frankly. I considered the same thing you are (subwoofer behind) but after removing one seat it just looked so bad i put it back. really need to find some paneling or something to take the place of the seat to cover up the area.

I suggest removing the center armrest and putting a box in there instead. you might only be able to get an 8" sb in there but it would look better.

So I've come to the conclusion, after thinking about this for a week, that I am going to be taking the whole back wall off, and putting one huge fiberglass box and amp rack for the JL 13w7 and my Orion amps.

I want to paint it all black. I want a solid red and black theme going on my truck. So.. that's why I'm thinking of those tail lights and the black stripes.
