You can EASILY fit 2x12" in a '96. I used 4x10's in my '02 for a long time, and 4x12 would have been easily done in the same configuration. If you really want a pair of good 12's for the money, look at Dayton Titanics, Elemental Kv2's, Acoustic Elegance AV12's, or Ascendant Audio Assassin. Those are the best bang for the money I can think of right now. All of them have the ability to get VERY loud, and still maintain musicality. If you want just an obnoxious fart machine, then we'll reconsider the choices.
