playing with box ideas

I got bored and had nothing better to do, so i decided to start playing with a new box idea. I decided to check out a triangular prism shaped box. It seems like the best space saver in a regular cab since it would still allow you maximun reclining...wouldn't it? So i computed the measurements I would need and taped it out on my mini-fridge (pic available if its requested. lol. quite funny looking). I didn't feel like pulling out a sub, so im not certain, but there appears to be enough space to mount my P1's since they dont take a lot of depth. So what do yall think, possible. ideas to further my thoughts?

I made a box for a single 10" P2 downfiring and like the way it sits in the truck. It lets the pass. seat go far enough back to please even the most "gangsta" as they like to be known, of my friends. It only takes up one of the jumpseats and i made an amp rack to mount the amp on top but it didn't quite look good so thats coming off. Other than the rack i love the box, pretty small, clean, and very inconspicuous to some of the window peekers.

How bout something like this? If you have I *think* a 93 or newer you'll have a little more room than I did. If I can find my drawing I could scan it and send it to ya.
