Hehe, *almost* makes me wish I had a column shift automatic...almost but not quite. That's an awesome job though, and looks like you've even got room on there for other goodies; got anything already in mind?

Tons of sanding after every coat of paint got it smooth. I plan to glass it this summer.

They are 10's and the box is 10.75 inches wide. Very tight fit.

hi again is where the console storage used to be all air space for the subs (both or just bottom one?)im trying to make something similar but i want to try to have alittle storage room in the center.i have to say that your box came out real good and any help is appreciated

I am using the whole console for airspace. you could seperate the subs in their each box, then use the space between then for storage. If you do it that way, just make sure you have both subs airspace exact.

nice smooth box. one of my customers built something similar to that for his silverado regular cab and put in 3 10w3v3d4 with a JL 500/1 and it sounded amazing. then then a few weeks later he flipped his truck and totaled it......back to the drawing board. Great job though
