2002-2013 Chevrolet Avalanche 1st-2nd Gen (GMT800/GMT900) — subwoofer box fitment

What we researched for this specific generation: where an enclosure actually fits, what the factory speakers are, how the factory audio is wired, and which real builds and commercial products exist for it. Confidence badges say how well each figure is sourced — this is research, not manufacturer spec.

Body styles covered: 4-Door Crew Cab Pickup (Midgate)

Where a box actually fits

These are researched envelopes, not a guarantee. Measure your own vehicle — the numbers here tell you what to expect, not what you have.

Midgate Replacement Likely

Locationmidgate area (the NET Audio boxes replace the factory midgate flap)
Outer bounding boxNo independently measured dimensions found. NET Audio's four sizes are 58 x 27 x 7, x 9, x 12 and x 16 in (as printed; axes not labelled); NET calls the box "the maximum workable height and width", with depth up to 16 in possible.
Known obstructionsNET: install means removing the midgate flap and unbolting it from the hinges; the 4.0 cu ft box "will lose the factory rear window storage"; the box has to be built no deeper than 16 in to fit through the rear doors.

Under Rear Seat Likely

Locationunder the rear seat
Outer bounding boxGround Shaker 8 in dual box: height 6, length 45 1/4, depth 13 3/4 in. Sound Off Audio and Super Crew Sound give air space (0.5 to 0.55 cu ft per sub) and a mounting depth of 5 to 5.5 in but no outside size.
Known obstructionsSound Off Audio: the rectangular support bar under the rear seat has to be removed (2002-2006) or its plastic cap removed (2007-2013).

Behind Rear Seat Likely

Locationbehind the rear seat
Outer bounding boxGround Shaker 10 in dual box: height 19 1/2, length 50 1/2, top depth 2, bottom depth 6 in (mounting depth 4 in).
Known obstructionsGround Shaker: wide baskets or magnets may not fit.

Factory audio integration

Factory amp / premium audioChevrolet brochures, 2012 and 2013 only: they list a "Seven-speaker Bose sound system" and an "Eight-speaker Bose Centerpoint Surround Sound System" (the 2013 brochure's select-features block runs LS, LT, LTZ; the seven-speaker system sits in the LT text and the Centerpoint system in the LTZ text, read from interleaved columns, so the trim assignment is probable, not certain). Speaker sizes, subwoofer details and amplifier location not published in the brochures. No Chevrolet or Bose audio source was read for 2002-2011.
Adding subs without a head-unit swapBose systems have a factory amplifier; nothing read on tapping it

Known integration products

Mounting locations

Crew Cab Unconfirmed

Chevrolet's 2012 and 2013 brochures: the Midgate converts the SUV to a pickup whose cargo box is printed as 8 ft 2 in. No seats-up cargo volume was found from GM for any year (GM sites blocked), and no GM document was read for 2002-2006. The box makers' printed sizes are listed with the builds and products below. Measure your own space before cutting wood.

Before you cut anything

Measure your own vehicle. Trim levels, factory subwoofer options, and mid-generation changes all move these numbers, and a box cut to a researched figure that does not match your truck is wasted wood. Where a badge reads Unconfirmed, treat the value as a starting point for your own measurement, not as an answer.
