I don't think it'* been done, but it probably could be with some modifications... Remember, we do have a pass-through behind the center armrest
Oh, and please don't post in caps pretty please, it'* considered yelling on this forum

(btw, what kind of bass are we talking about? what you got going on?)
Oh yeah, WELCOME!

After taking my back seat and rear deck apart, i can tell you that modding it so the whole back seat layed down would be pretty difficult. Even if you got the seat to lay down there is metal bracing behind the seat where some onstar and monsoon components are mounted. Pulling down your pass through is really your best option. Or what i did was since my 6x9'* were blown i took them out and put my 2 JL 10W0'* in the trunk and it sounds tons better than the stock system.

well i have 4 kicker cvx'* 15"* so you know how that is. i have the monsoon amp taken out since i have a kenwood aftermarket powering the highs. im not worried about the metal bracing i just need a little more inlet than what the center arm rest is letting in ya kno!

This is true. 4 higher output 15'* are moving a little more air than my low wattage 10'*.

Could you carve some big holes in the parcel shelf?

i always preferred my systems sealed up. in my experience i have liked my subs sealed and facing rear with the trunk closed off. Always sounded cleaner and louder to me

thats smart i think i might do that with the ports through the rear deck. i havent thought about that yet. i have 2 15"* facing the interior and the other 2 facing the outside of the trunk. but thanks for that idea though i will definitely consider that.
