speakers in my bed

I was thinking about building a custom fiberglass box to fit in my bed,and put some marine speakers in it. So when i have people riding in the bed they can listen to the music too. What do you all think?

I'd be more afraid of someone trying to steal them.

You could have a seperate small amp with the remote lead on a toggle switch. hit the switch, the amp turns on, and BAM! Speakers in the cap.
