Installing Subwoofers, cd player, and amp.

How would I measure and mount a sub box, under or behind the rear bench seat?

If I am not mistaken, Crutchfield.com offers a subwoofer box designed to fit under the rear seat.

No offense mate but it's a truck...  You kill sound quality with a subwoofer in that tiny of a place...  Get better speakers with a good low end and a head unit to drive them... You'll get better sound quality without fucking up the sound imaging...

But that's just me.  If you're simply wanting loud then by all means a big ass 12 inch is the way to go... Just not my cup o' tea.

go to jl audio and see if they have a stealth box for that truck instead of going with the audiobahns.

A company called Atrend (atrendusa.com) is a good place to start.  They make lots of custom gm truck enclosures.  I just ordered a custom fit box for my 07 denali crew that fits under the rear seat, but it's for two 10s.  You can find them at bestbuy, but I ordered mine from hookedontronics.com for about $80 total with shipping!

You should double check, but I believe this would be a perfect fit for the truck you describe, for $75 with free shipping and no tax (link below)!  For about $50 more you can get one coated in spray in bedliner material.  You can also find these on bestbuy.com.
