Well, if your into the Pioneers send MR2NR a PM he's a vendor on here and currently located in BC for now but is moving to Calgary I believe. He just two days ago gave my a quote for Pioneer shallow 8's and they were nowhere near that price. Send him a PM and see what he was. Whats the worse that could happen?

I would not touch the Clarions with Yuli's well you get the drift. The Excelons are a great sub, proven time and time again. The Pioneer subs are a good sub as well. My pricing will definitely be cheaper than what you have quoted and carry full manufacturer warranty. I am back in my store for monday morning at which time I would be able to solidify a quote for you. PM me you postal code so I can calculate shipping.

Lots of space but do you want it all hidden? You could probably fit 2 ported Dcon 12's (300wrms/$125ea+shipping) inbetween the back seats, I've seen a centered-wall with either 4 10's or 12's in a crew cab, kaption audio I think, all fiberglassed, it looked so good. If you're concearned about output and space, a normal 10 or 12 on 1-2k would be better. You could put it in the back between the seats.
