No pics of the speaker box being made. I built the whole thing out of flat cardboard sheet stock and then took the templates and cut all pieces from 3/4" MDF. The box is actually 3 boxes bolted internally together. Had to do it this way in order to get them to fit in the truck. And yes, it is through bolted through the sheet metal of the floor of the truck. That sucker is not going anywhere.

Thanks for the info and the tip to Carsinc. I'd never heard of them before. I just tried to request a swatch for their gree/green Cameo seat but it won't let me. I'll have to give them a call.
Good on you for making the bracket. What's the light itself from? Kinda looks like an extra long side marker from a boat trailer(?)
Smart idea to make the box from cardboard templates, I'll remember that. After seeing yours I'm thinking of doing the same but incorporating some shallow storage into it, above where yours stops now.
