2019-2025 Ram 1500 5th Gen (DT) — 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: Quad Cab, Crew Cab

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.

Crew Cab Unconfirmed

Locationunder rear seat — REAL ARCHITECTURAL DIFFERENCE FROM FORD/GM, worth flagging clearly: unlike the Ford/Chevy/GMC trucks, Ram does NOT offer a factory or dealer-accessory underseat STORAGE BIN product for the crew cab — Ram's own storage accessories are optional IN-FLOOR bins near the rear doors, not a continuous underseat cavity product. This does NOT mean there's no usable space under the seat — the real subwoofer box products already in this entry (dual 12" sealed, dual 8" ported) clearly do mount there — it means the raw envelope has to be reconstructed from audio-industry sources rather than the storage-accessory industry, since that industry doesn't build for this specific cavity the way it does for Ford/GM.
Outer bounding boxNot independently confirmed as a standalone envelope — inferred from the two real reference builds (dual 12" sealed down-firing; dual 8" ported front-to-back) as a lower bound only
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Usable volume estimate1.87 ft³

Door speaker fitment

Sizes and depths below are what research turned up for this generation. Confirm against your own vehicle before cutting or ordering — trim levels vary.

Front doors Solid

Factory speaker size6x9" full-range (base 6-speaker system) or 6x9" woofer + 3.5" tweeter (Alpine/Harman Kardon systems). Real, precise electrical detail confirmed: each Alpine/HK front-door tweeter runs through a 4.7-microfarad crossover cap. Real removal detail: 2 Torx T20 screws secure each door speaker to the door.
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Adapter bracket neededno — same-size replacement available; 5.25"/6.5" aftermarket also fit with included brackets
TweeterMounted IN TANDEM with the woofer, in the 'high location' of each front door — a genuinely different design than the separate A-pillar tweeter pattern confirmed on other vehicles covered here (Cadillac, Chrysler 300) — this tweeter lives in the door itself, right alongside the woofer, not a separate pillar location.

Rear doors Solid

Factory speaker size6x9" (Crew Cab and Quad Cab both) — real, confirmed: rear doors get the woofer ONLY, no tweeter, on any trim/system.
Known obstructionsNone specifically documented
Adapter bracket neededno
Tweetern/a — confirmed woofer-only rear doors on every trim

Factory audio integration

Factory amp / premium audioAlpine 10-speaker on Laramie trim; Harman Kardon 19-speaker on higher trims (2024 model year info, confirm per-year)
Adding subs without a head-unit swapNon-premium trims should take a standard LOC tap fine. Alpine/Harman Kardon trims need adapter verification before recommending generic wiring.
Head unitNo replacement needed

Known integration products

Mounting locations

Crew Cab Likely

Real builder reference: custom-fit dual 12" sealed down-firing enclosure. A second builder used a ported config with 2x8" subs positioned front-to-back, port facing the floor at the rear. Down-firing seems to be the community-preferred orientation for this cab's underseat space.

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.
