where to put subs other than hatch area?

I am just wondering where i should put my box because it's too big to fit in the hatch area. When laying flat it is 13.5 inches tall. I am thinking about putting it on my rear seats. How would i make it stay there if i put it in?

Any other places i can put it?

Does anyone have any pics of their subs being in places other than the rear hatch area?

With a little creativity you can put them just about anywhere. I've seen 10s in the 6x9 location (I had a pair of 8s there in my 86 Firebird), and with some real creativity you can probably get a 10" in the spare tire area.

I took the backseat out behind the passenger side and put it in there.It doesn't move around any and if it does i guess you could use the seatbelt.

Remove one, or both of the rear seats and use the boltdowns that the seats bolt to to bolt the sub box to. You can then build the box to form the area behind the seats. It's just an idea for ya. I am currently using the seatbelt, but it just dosn't look as good. Just imagine a wall of subs behind the driver's and passenger's seats.
