Thought I would share what I made last weekend. It houses a 12" Polk Audio MM series shallow sub. Started on the 3rd, finished everything including the wiring on the 6th. The box is a little overkill but oh well. The whole thing is 3/4" MDF and on the front panel I have 2 layers so 1.5" total. I mounted the sub to the interior panel to keep the sub flush with the outer panel and to keep enough clearance between the seat back and the sub for woofer movement.
Here is a pic taken on the 4th shortly after I finished the enclosure, Ill take more pics tomorrow of it in the truck and upload them. It's a sealed enclosure currently with no poly fill. Debating whether to port it or just add some poly fill. Some songs sound *grrreat! while others are so-so.

The box isn't covered in carpet yet or anything of that nature. As for now I figured I would just leave it, I am the only one that will ever see it anyways, besides you all here of course
But its sealed very well and holds the amp and cap. The amp and cap were from Fry's, nothing special, 1400 watt 2-channel, 2-farad cap. They were on sell, so....
Should be enough clearance, haven't had any trouble with it yet. With the seat back folded down, the sub hits the cushion, therefore I can only run the stereo with the seat in the upright position. No biggie for me.
