I put a 10" under the bench seat.  I used some web speaker box
designer thing to figure out roughly how big the box is.  I can provide
(external) measurements if you want.  The box is simply 1/2" particle board (I
would have used 3/4, but i already had the 1/2) and is actually just glued
together with caulk.  I still need to get a grill for it.

inside passenger side of bench seat (never bothered to mount the amp):

inside driver side of bench seat (I can't say mounting the cd changer right next to the
subwoofer was one of my better ideas):
