Anyone 3rd gens have under seat subs?

I built my own, but on the left side so I could still use the cubby hole. I used a slim mount 10" so that it would sit even with the tire hump, and found some tan carpet for cheap on eBay:

Yea, that's all fine and dandy, but I think you're missing the point here. The real issue at hand is that my truck is packed full on a day to day basis and there really is NO spare room for even a box of that size in my truck.
That exposed sub wouldn't last a week.
This thread has nothing to do with boxes of any kind unless it fits under a 4runner seat.
 
make raised brackets and lift the seat. make a custon box to fit what ever sub you want and your done. mount the amp under the passenger seat. make sure you leave your self enough head room.
 
Hey CanadianTRD is there a build thread on how to mount that to the cealing. Sorry not trying to hijack a thread.:rockthrow:
 
This interests me as well. I'm the same way. Gear stuffed top to bottom on a semi daily basis. I like the idea of the all in one unit. Seems clean and easy.

If i am mot mistaken, i believe the picture itself is a link to the exact post/writeup in his build thread. Username: Blcktpgsr :cowboy:
 
i have one of these under my drivers seat. slim subwoofer I too have a manual seat and it fits good. Sounds ok for what it is.. I am used to my Accord with a JL stealthbox..

I don't have any pictures of it yet. I'll try to take some this weekend.
 
there was an individual who buolt one INTO his cubby in the back. Mounted a 10" in there, IIRC. I can't, for the lift of me, find this guy or the post, so if ANYONE on here know's him, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have him get a hold of me. I'd love to look through the post again and see how he did it, and would love to know what he thinks of his set up.
 
I had that same sub in my FXT

Ive often wondered if you could adapt one for use in a 3rd gen. Oh and theyre cheap as well.
 
Im sorry, but hell.....you should'a bought a Tacoma if thats what you do with the T4R.

I should have bought a Tacoma for wanting to use my cargo space in my T4R? I'm not sure how that's relevant at all.

I would never go that far to mount a sub under the passenger side seat when I can do nothing to the drivers side seat and mount one under there.


The sub I purchased is pretty straight forward, easy to set up and fits perfectly under the drivers side seat with no mods what so ever.
 
I know this is a car audio question, but I am really curious how many of you 3rd gen guys out there have upgraded their car audio, but have not compromised their cargo space.

I use my cargo space on a daily basis and have no interest in adding a box with external amp. I'm looking for opinions on an out of the way, under seat and self amplified unit. I don't need to be heard from blocks away, as I am looking for better in car quality sound.

There are so many choices out there. I would like to hear from you who have run a sub this way and what you like and dislike about your "stealthy" systems.


***UPDATE::

Project no box has arrived!

It's been here for a couple weeks, but I'm finally getting time to put it in this weekend. It's not a huge brand name or anything, but for the price I got it for (under $150 shipped), I don't care.

No crazy bass pounding setup by any means. I had a factory 6" under my STi seat and that sounded just fine. This 8" will be even better.

Features:
-8" woofer
-self amplified
-300w peak
-adjustable bass control knob
-less than 3" thick
-out of sight, out of mind under seat mounting

I will be hooking it up through my rear speakers. Leaving the factory deck in place.

Review to come.

Poopy phone pics..
