Stage 1
OEM-Plus Under-Seat Subwoofer Enclosure for Ford Trucks
Stage 1 is the foundation of the CB Customs lineup — a clean, OEM-plus under-seat enclosure designed specifically for Ford F-Series trucks. This option is perfect for customers who want real bass performance without sacrificing factory appearance or interior function.
Built in-house and engineered around factory seat and floor geometry, Stage 1 delivers a proper enclosure solution instead of a generic prefab box.
