two 12's, one 15... or two 15's?

Okay, so I was wondering... In my truck I currently have one 12 hooked up to a 1k amp (with an on/off switch) and two 8's on a 600 watt amp where there should be a backseat... but back seats are gay so I removed them... but it's amazing, the 8's I leave oin all the time because that laves really good bass inside the cab but you can't hear it much outside... and the treble can still be heard too... but if I wanna show out I flip my 12 on and it adds enough to disrupt the peace outside my truck a little bit...

anyway I was wondering, because most people put subs in the trunk on there car what should I run in the trunk of my car to have similar results? and also i heard that you can't spiderweb your windows if the subs are in your trunk.. any truth to this?

single 10 or single 12 is more than enough in a civic.

You can bust your windows if they are in the trunk or not, I have seen it.

Get a really good bandpass box with a single 10 and you will kill it. Most people don't invest in a good box!

I had 2 15's in my civic where the backseat was. It bumped pretty hard, and I only had a Jensen 650. But apparently, someone knew I wanted to do some weight reduction and they wanted my subs more than I did and simply took them off my hands while I was passed out on Nyquil.

Personnaly I would to two 10's..2 12's would be ok but 2 15's is to much unless you are looking to break stuff on your car, or even others..I have seen 2 15's shatter glass, along with vibrate plenty of things loose a small car..
