Got my changer behind the seat on passenger side really nice.

I saw someone get a Bazooka subwoofer enclosure and stick it next to the gas tank on the passenger side. Supposed to have sounderd pretty damned good too.

Am I to assume that you have done this swap? If so, was it worth it? I am thinking about doing it, and actually have a trip to the wrecker planned for this weekend so I can go look. I am just looking for a plain old no frills bench seat. Am I on the right track if I want to fit stuff under it? Thanks! Also, has anyone ever had one of these re-covered?

I mounted two amps under my seat with no issues.. my sub is ghetto.. it's just bouncing around under there until I do something more inteligent with it. The only thing holding it down is the gigantic magnet stuck to the floor like a fridge magnet holding my daughter's artwork to the box.
