Default Aftermarket sub

Hey guys, I'm trying to decide how I want to install a sub and an amp. I'm only going with one 12. Nothin crazy-gotta keep the truck family/trip friendly. But this no-sub issue is KILLIN me! So if you've installed any sort of an aftermarket sub box and amp in your truck and you have a pic, can you post it for me?

I have a rubber mat in the back, so I'm thinking about drilling some holes and just riveting the sub box down with some metal straps. But I'm still not sure how I want to do it. Do all sub boxes have to be square, or could I make a corner mounted box instead? I'm thinking I could just add a board inside so the sound is bouncing off it instead of going into a corner.

I built mine into a corner. I wish I would have gone with a smaller sub so I could have kept more room back there but I got it on ebay for pretty cheap and didn't want to pass up that deal



Enjoy..

i was actually able to fit my box right between the 2 hooks on the floor and i used that blue strap with a crank to hold it there. With the strap there the sub doesnt move a bit. About the amp i used a couple screws to keep it on the flap
