2017 Tahoe Stealth Install

This could go either in audio or interior but I think it fits better here, but feel free to move if need be.

Been wanting more storage room without losing the tunes so I came up with this design. 2017 Tahoe with 3rd row removed, lockable storage drawer installed with a custom downfire box between it and the 2nd row. If you look closely you can see the seam between the two about 2/3s of the way back.

Plenty of storage and bass and nothing can been seen from outside. 1st pic is from the rear and the 2nd is what you see from the front, between the captains chairs. Now my sub is protected from gear or the dog and even with the rear filled to the roof I can still get to all my tools.


Not shown is the Kicker KX400.1 with a 12" Kicker Solo-baric L7T shallow mount sub.


Can provide more details if interested.

Interesting concept. Let us know what you think when you get it completed.

It’s all done and looks/sounds great. I did lose some deeper bass but I assumed I would due to going to a shallow mount sub from a CompR in a larger box but overall it’s perfect.

So update. It didn’t bump enough. Moved the safe to the rear 5” and built a ported box based off of specs from kicker rep. 2.14 cubic ft ported, tuned to around 37hz. Here is the port setup before I sealed it up. Same height and width but added 5” to the depth. It hits a lot better now. Installed a L7 Solobaric slim mount. Exterior wise it looks the same except for the front firing port.
