Putting subs in my 1999 Z28 convertible

I own a black 1999 Camaro Z28 convertible and would really like to have some bass. I can't put anything in the trunk because when the top is down, it is completely sealed off from the cabin. I can't permanently leave my backseat down because I occasionally have to put a childseat back there. Any ideas from anyone?

Im not very familiar with converts, but I dont think being sealed off really matters...I used to have a grand am and I had a sub box in the trunk, when it was facing forwards it didn't matter if it was sealed or not, it was loud as hell. I think if you did it right, it would sound great...convertible guys correct me if Im wrong?

Has anyone tried rigging up 6" or 8" subs in the holes where the backseat speakers are? If so, how did you do it and was it worth it?

Hazard2k, that isn't a convertible. The top comes down partially inside those pillars so there is no comparison with the amount of room I would have to work with. I appreciate the thought though. That is exactly what I want to do but with someone who owns a convertible and knows first hand the amount of space available and what to cut!
