that's we did the 8 in the side panel in the tC. it's behind the right taillight( bolted to car fro those trolls that might want to steal it.) my wife packs the hatch for work, so she needed the space too. I have seen another idea in an xD with a couple flat mount subs. it had a "rack" built across the hatch. kinda like a hatch cover with subs in it.

doing fiberglass isn;t that bad. just a little time consuming. use masking tape to create layers in the area in which you wish to put the sub. brush the resin over the tape( use lots of tape!!) and let it sit for a day. then you will have a bowl to start. you'll need a mounting ring for whatever sub you wish to use and make /mount the jig to the bowl. from there, lay the fiberglass over the frame/bowl and brush resin over it. like doing plaster/ paper mache. from there, let it sit for a couple days to harden. then smooth it with some bondo and carpet it.
