Have you already purchased the subby? because you can buy slim line subs now that work a treat. No need for deep subs you can get em to fit behine seat in single cab utes. Or even just buy a couple of 6 inch subs, they also work a treat and would do in a ute the size of a 1200 ute. Other than than, like she said "stick it where it fits" :D

Hahaha not many places for that :thumbsup:

On a serious note, I'll attach a picture or 5 of a 1200 ute with a few subs when I get home because I'm at work. I've seen about 8 places you can mount a sub in a 1200 ute and it still is rather effective ;)

Like Riley said though, shallow mount subs are the way to go and a LOT easier to fit in single cab utes. My personal fav is under the seat for them ladies :giggle:

Have you opened the 6x9s yet?

If not I'd recommend taking them back and seeing if you can swap 'em for a set of 7x10s. Whack them in the doors and your little ute will be rocking.

If this ain't possible then a couple of small subs squeezed where ever you can fit em.

EDIT: are the speakers you have 6x6.5s or 6x9s?
