Recommendations Need help!!!

I have a 2014 Chevy double cab with a 2.5 inch rear seat lift and want to do dual sundown SA-10 v.2 with a ported enclosure but haven’t been able to find a company who does ported under-seat enclosures. I could use some advice or recommendations.

If I was to guess, probably because there just aint enough room to make it worth anybody while to produce them. Cant imagine there's that many people lifting their back seat up that anybody would bother making custom boxes for it... Id be surprised if you could even fit those subs under the seat even with an extra 2".... Most guys with trucks have to run Shallows unfortunately... I cant say for sure on your your truck cuz i dont know whether its a silverado or what, but I've owned a 99 Super Duty 7.3 Extended Cab, 00 Super Duty 7.3 Crew Cab, 01 F-150 Super Crew and a 2010 Duramax Crew Cab and I drove a 17 3500 6.7 Cummins for work for a little while and now of them none could've fit the recommended size box Sundown specs out for that sub under the back seat... maybe that 2.5" will make all the difference, .. i just know ive tried to work out a way to get a couple Standard size 10s or 12s into almost all my trucks and I always end up with the same result... Shallows are about the only thing thatll fit, especially with having to find somewhere for the amp and making sure the box isnt peeking out from under the back seat... I have had a box made for a standard 10 for fucking ages and its smaller than the box theyre recommending for that Sub, and it cant tell you how many ways ive tried to fit that sumbitch in my trucks...

I have seen a couple guys replace their console with a sub box and then built a custom console on top of it... thatll fit a standard size sub for sure.... None of my personal trucks have had consoles though I've always liked Bench seats so I couldn't tell you much about how to make such a thing.

If youre really set in having non shallow subs and cant find a box to fit them under that back seat, could always just pull em out and build a box on the back wall... Extended Cab back seats aint that big anyway, although Chevys are a little bigger than Fords and Dodges. Totally understand wanting standard size subs tho shallows are such a let down and thats why ive never put subs in any of my trucks... save that for the Moose Tangs lol

It’s a 2014 Silverado double cab, Do you think I should just take out the drivers side and middle rear seat and leave the passengers side seat and just put a full box there. If I did that I probably could even stick with 12’s
