I haven't been on here for a while but I'm looking for either two separate boxes, or one single box that will hold two 10" subs. Something slim enough so the seat will go all the way back as normal without butchering the seat or anything else. I've done research and found some expensive boxes but has anyone used an Amazon box with success? Here's a link to one that I'm looking at.https://a.co/d/0528FPv9 . Or, does anyone know the max thickness at the top and bottom of a box that will fit? I don't have access to my seat now so I can't measure. I'm not building anything for competition. Thanks.

Rockville makes a good product.
That one there has an internal volume of .62 cubic feet so a sub such as a Pioneer TS-A2500LS4 would play well with this box or even a Rockford Fosgate R2SD4-10 for examples.
I have a single Rockville RWS10CA 1000W 10" in mine and it's almost too much. Running two 10" subs will be sonic fun to say the least.

Thanks for the reply. That does look good. The Rockville box is what I was looking at on Amazon. There's a RSTS10 and an RSTS10V, looks like the only real difference is the cubic feet, not sure which would be better for a 10".

Do you know the width /height/length of your box? Does the seat go back?

Just match the subs sealed box requirements to the box of choice and you'll be good. Just watch your amp and subs power settings. That's why I bought the all-in-one setup hoping that Rockville matched everything up properly and put my worries about an external amp to rest.

It fits good, not much is lost on backward travel, 7"D x 24"W x 15"H but the top measurement is more closer to 4", bottom not quite 7", more like 6.5". I'm 5'11" and I'm content with fit. Don't recall how much if any seat travel was lost but if you have access to some sturdy cardboard, mockup a sub box and see how it fits.

Yes, I like the idea of all-in-one, EZ PZ. Only thing to consider with setups like that is heat, an all-in one can build heat fast if driven hard and amp could clip. I don't drive mine hard so all good so-far.
If driving it hard and amp clipping occurs, it may be necessary to create a vent on the amp side, ONLY if the amp is internally sealed away from the sub, to dissipate built up heat.
Then one may need to contact Rockville about construction on these to confirm if a vent could be added without affecting the subs performance.

Mounted my seat so I could take measurements for the sub box. I bought an Amazon box that is wedge shape: 7.5" bottom, 5" top, 15" tall, and 20" wide. The seat touches the top of the box when it's all the way back, looks like if it was 3" at the top it would work fine. Nobody makes this size that I can find. Rockford Fosgate's website has a calculator that figures Cubic Feet, so if I make a box that's the same dimensions but 3" at the top and 5" longer (25"), it should give the same cubic feet, or close enough. Now I'm looking for someone that works with wood since that's not me, I'm a metal guy.

Our local sound guy had a box meant for a Tacoma that would fit nicely behind a squarebody seat. It held two 10s. He wanted $190 for it. I don't know the brand.

Thanks, I'll search for one for that truck and look at the dimensions.
