Rear speakers

What has everyone done about rear speakers in our 'Burbs? I can't decide what to do about speaker location. The only place I can come up with is under the second row seat, but I'm worried about the sound quality from under the seat, and behind the driver seat. My '71 originally came with a 3rd row seat, but was long bone when I got it. I will use it for hailing dogs and stuff, so I really don't want a big speaker box back there. Any ideas?

Re: Rear speakers

Before I bought my Burban the PO had 6x9 speakers mounted behind the 2nd row seat in the side panels. They were removed when I bought it.

Re: Rear speakers

Yeah, I had to look for a while to find my rear cargo panels and would rather not cut holes in 'em.

I thought of that but am reluctant to mess up the headliner I worked very hard on.

Most women like the strong, silent type… Fortunately for me, my wife prefers the out-of-shape, mouthy type.
