That's a good amount of space to work with.  The pictures can be difficult sometimes, try uploading them to photobucket.com.  They have a fairly simple editing tool that you can resize pictures with.

Here are a few of the pictures for you.  Are you planning on using fiberglass and/or wood?  Also, are you wanting it to be hidden once you close the door to the storage compartment or are you ok with it sticking up?

Initially i wanted to use just the storage compartment,but i dont think there is enough depth so im gonna build up and make a false floor,i do have 3 kids,space and storage are needed,atleast some.I do also have the area where the factory subwoofer is but i think for one 10" its just not worth it.We'll see, hopefully monday my amp will be in and i can lay it all out.Oh yeah,i appreciate the help on the pics.

If it's an option, I think a shallow mount sub like the Clarion SFW1051 (3" top mount depth) would fit nicely in there and allow you to keep the compartment door.  Were you going to use fiberglass for the bottom half?

If you were going to stick with the orion sub and you were willing to hack the compartment door a little, mabye you could cut out a hole for the sub to peak through and use a heavy duty speaker grill (good variety on ebay) to protect it?

No cutting here,atleast on the compartment door,but i'm thinking about a piece of mdf for a top plate and fiberglass the base.Raising the floor a few more inches is probably whats going to happen,we'll see when this amp comes in so i can lay it all out,good idea on the grill material,the home depot here has some of the same thickness material but with patterns,just a thought though.
