Yeah that's area is wide open and I'd bet sealing it with foam would even make the factory mids sound better!

Lol! It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be (I just took it apart to run the RCA's and remote turn on wire)

Just ran the RCA's, remote wire and hooked up the bass knob so it would be ready when I had more time for the rest. I'm going to install 2 fused distribution centers under the seat (1 switched and 1 constant power) like I had in my El Camino so I can easily add any other accessories.

 I figured it would be better to have and not need than to need and not have so I ditched the 8" sub for a JL 13TW5 (13.5" shallow sub). The notch fits around the seat belt mechanism and tool pouch mounting stud which I'm going to use for a bracket  to hold it at the bottom. The top will be bolted through the cavity with nutserts and will have rubber insulators to isolate it from the cab.

The enclosure spans the entire rear wall so I'm going to move the amp back to the bottom compartment in the jump seat and it's only 3 3/8" deep so jump seat opens and seats go all the way back.

Got started wiring up the jump seat for the amp (JL Audio xd700/5v2). I'm going to put a barrier strip on the back so I can install the amp inside before reinstalling the jump seat and then I'll just have to make connections on the outside..

I cleaned up the wiring underneath tonight and added some extra protection where wires contact metal. I decided to use quick disconnects instead of the terminal strip and as soon as those arrive I'll be ready to reinstall everything.

Made some cable organizers from zip ties..
