Dont have to much experience w/ the RE...Diamonds are a good product...I currently have two Diamond 12" in the trunk...We just got in a few of the Cerwin Vega 12" in...  We loaded 2 of them in a slot port box w/ 500 watts from a JL amp...Sounded Great!

any dealers close to southern indiana on here, or any other subs i might want to here looking in the 200-250 range would like to stick with the kac-x10d if that is a good sub amp, the dealer i saw seemed very stuck on selling rockfords and thought was a little more spl not as much sq as id like

I know this is a much newer vehicle, but does your vehicle look similar to this one?

Oh well, Sorry, I thought a quad cab was called a quad cab because it had 4 doors.  Had your vehicle been just like this one, you can cut that metal piece out of the bottom.  The piece that makes the storage compartments.  And you can easily raise the rear seat 3 inches.  The seat will still lock into the hooks and you would be surprised what you can do with 3 extra inches of height.

I have a reg cab and an extended cab dodge. I've built 2 sub-boxes,1 holds a single 10" Kicker L5 and the other has a 10" CVL.Both have dual 2 ohm v.c's that are wired for a 4 ohm load.The box replaces the bottom center cushion of the front seat.JL Audio makes these also,called a stealth box.Down side is their's holds a JL 12" sub and you can't buy the box without it,and its expensive. I'm powering these subs with Kicker KX 600.1's and the s.q is impressive. Send me a p.message with an e-mail and i'll send you some pics to look over.What i like about this setup is no loss of cab space,and it's well hidden.
