I put a Pioneer 10" shallow sub under my front passenger seat with my amp under the driver seat. the sub only needs .4 - .75 cuft to work properly. I build the box myself out of 1/2" mdf board and made it to 'just' barely fit. Had to move my jack though and that went into the storage under the rear seats. The jack surely didn't take up as much of the storage as a speaker box would have.

Did you have to do anything else when you lifted ur seats up? Was it the entire seat assembly or just the seats themselves?

Check out my pictures in my gallery to see how the seat is raised. It's simple. I also did a step-by-step in the interior modifications forum.

They came with the Fox box.
Also, the seats were lifted by small wooden blocks, which were also supplied in the Fox kit with full instructions on what to do.
That's why I'd have no hesitation in saying that, I fully recomend the Joe Fox boxes to anyone.
They come complete with everything for the install. Even the sound deadening fibre, tostuffup and fillthe sub box.

You can do what I did. Granted, I did use a 12" JL sub, but i'm sure the cerwins would work. I just looked and they actually require less sealed volume than the jl. .75 cubic feet. Depending on the sub you have.

I replaced the center console bottom with a custom box I made. here are some pics to help.

One more. Use a 1/2 machine screw, 1/2 lag screw to mount it to existing console floor mounts. Screw the armrest to the box with 2.5" screws. two will keep it there.
