I went with the ssv works box with an audiomobile evo 2410. The combo is fantastic the airspace of the box is perfect for the sub. If you want to go with a tailgate mount look at tpdhifi, i think their box is better than the stinger box.
I run the JL in the Raptor. It is a very good sub. As they say, you get what you pay for. I had a Kicker setup in my Badlands, it was powered by a 5-channel Kenwood. It was decent, but the JL is heads and shoulders above it in sound.
I listen to a variety of music, and the JL sounds great for all of it. I would recommend the JL sub for anyone will to pay a little extra. It is truly worth it.

Any time you get a premium brand mass market up you can be sure the engineered enclosure and sub work together well and high quality...

Is that a 12” sub? Are you running it of the Mobridge amp in the picture? If so, does it keep up with that sub? Did you have to modify the rear cargo panel? ThanksThe factory box works just fine, I just plugged the port, as my sub was looking for something larger/ported or smaller non-ported.

The airspace of the factory box is not enough for a 12” sub from any manufacture. You can install an 8, but it rolls off at about 42 hz. The Mobridge amp has plenty of power to run a tailgate 12, but will not be enough for a basshead.
You can get a summing mono amp hat accepts high level (e.g. Kenwood XR1001.1) to get rid of roll off or a LOC that sums and any mono amp try a Kenwood 8" or buy a mid market loaded enclosure for tailgate I heard from audio shop that the Kenwood 8" loaded puts out more bass than the 10" but they're all good in the $400+ range.

For 10" hidden, the Stealthbox and Gearshade are all I know of besides custom boxes.
A quick google search also turned up Skar for 4-doors, but I don't know anything and this is the first I've seen of it

Although finding some other pics of it -- it's not really hidden...
I have the 10' JL. It hits really hard and sounds really good. I have a separate AMP going to it, and have reprogrammed the B&O amp to power the other speakers.
With OEM AMP powering those speakers, the whole sound stage sounds so much better.

Care to share how you were able to reprogram the factory B&O amp to open the whole stage sound? This would be exactly what I would hope to do, along with adding an amp and better sub as you did

Additive Car Audio makes a couple of 10" boxes with options for different amps. Worked out fantastic for me.

Yeah that’s Gearshade - they spun that part of their company off and named it Additive
Low density plastic boxes will never sound as good as an medium to premium brand loaded HDF enclosure....thankfully tailgate mounting is simple with Rivnuts. Optimal balance of box design, materials, internal treatment, and sub with no risk.
Some of the enclosures with decent integrated amps will sum a high level signal so it's very simple to run fused power from battery and signal from B&O sub out wire to enclosure amp for true plug and play and clean integration with remote bass knob with they pretty decent B&O DSP tune.

My audio guy used an LC7i, took the rear pods, front, and kicks, and combined them so they would run off the B&O amp. The JL sub is running on its own amp, which is beneath my pull-out tailgate in that cargo box.
The way it is set now, the other speakers have more power and sound better. The center is the only speaker running on the radio. I actually keep my system on stereo because it sounds much better this way.
I could go with some Alpine S2s in my setup, that is what I had in my Badlands, but honestly, the way it is set up now, I do not really feel the need to change the B&O speakers out.
