Question Bolting into trunk?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to attach my amps and sub in my trunk. Ideally
I'd put bolts through the body, but I'm worried about drilling into something important hiding on the other side. I've read through all the existing install threads and none of them mention in much detail just how they're attaching the equipment in the trunk. Could someone enlighten me?

Looking forward to posting pics when the install is done.

I'm thinking of moving my battery to the trunk as well. Did you buy a battery box?
Any DIY recommendations? Doesn't look like the right side is doable, but would be preferred for weight transfer/balance with driver.
Thanks!

So I took another look in the trunk and it would appear that the gas tank sits under the trunk just behind the rear seats and in front of the spare tire well. This is where I'd like to bolt stuff down...so I'm still a little concerned about that. Anyone know of a diagram that shows exactly where the tank is? Perhaps I'll be able to work around it.

Arn't you guys worried about battery fumes entering the car?
I don't think my lungs would like breathing the acidic air
