x2. But be careful where you mount the brackets. Make sure you look before you drill...

+1. Be extra careful, as the gas tank might be under the trunk.

If you're not using it, empty the spare tire well and mount them there.
Either that or cobble up a piece of plywood in the shape of the trunk floor, carpet it and mount your amps to it.
No more sliding, no ugly L brackets.

Metal is your friend. Make a bracket and fasten them to something. Rear deck, sides of trunk or the shock towers.

or depending on how the subs are mounted in the box, if you can bolt the box down then put the speakers back in there wouldn't be anything showing
