I have one of these installed in my boot as it would not quite go under my electric seats.

It gives enough extra base without turning you into a bass junkie..

I have one similar to this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLI-Trap-A...8AAOxyA9dSWcVt

But seeing as it takes up over half of the boot of my tourer I have gone back to my single 450w Fli Sub.

However it just doesn't sound the same.

I thought about having an underseat one the other year but for me it didn't have the punch and I felt it slightly unstable at high volumes, so I opted for a separate Alpine Sub which ive piggy backed,( well actually I had my entire system professionally installed) onto a 19 inch Hertz Sub and set so it adds depth rather than boom or heavy bass as that's awful and if you have a stereo with time line correction then you can adjust it to where your sat.

Just reading your list I see you have some nice gear installed.

The ZT came with an Alpine Amp as to which one have no idea, that's under the floor in the boot.
I also removed the huge double subs because everything was being played out of them which is wrong, they are there to handle the bass.
So with the smaller sub installed it now only plays the bass sounds and the rest of the speakers cover the other tones.
I know it's not set up correctly so will have have a play.

I bought a "mystery 12" bass box deal" from caraudiocentre.co.uk and was very pleased (only £70 when I bought it), very good value for money but as it's essentially a lucky dip ymmv.

I know it's not under the seat but it's still semi-removable if you need the extra boot space (just undo the wires and wrap some electrical tape around the ends)
