any one running components in the back?

got any pics of the set ups?

room seems pretty limited just wondering what other's have done.

I thought about it and honestly, it's not really worth it. You could hardly hear them if at all. The seat si in the way, no way to properly aim them, and they are (if set-up properly) the rear channels which usually won't see much action.

If you really want speakers back there, I suggest a pair of 6x9's.

re sx 12... for a centre console... doubt i'll be hearing much of anything..

yeah that's my big concern was aiming them properly, im running an aftermarket bucket... so getting the sound should be better than stock seat..

Maybe if you could angle them so they shot up over the top of the seat from behind, but I can't think of any other way to mount them so they sound "right" really. Maybe someone else will chime in with a better idea.
