Installing first enclosed system

I'm putting three 12" subs in a single enclosure in the boot of my 94 camry, and I need a way to actually attach them to the car without doing too much permanent damage. The reason for this is I plan to sell the car eventually, and I'm not sure that somebody buying a nice economical camry is going to want a 4000W audio system in the boot, sucking all that power and taking up that much space... I also want to make it so that its relatively hard to tell that they were ever there. Any suggestions?

silicone mdf to the floor, then screw the box to that with L brackets. When you sell the car, you should be able to pry that piece of wood up, or just carpet it and leave it in there.

you can also fabricate brackets that bolt to factory locations. This may involve some of that Aussie ingenuity, but I'm sure you can figure it out. I've seen some of the installs that come out of The bush. Amazing

Both good ideas... I'll see what I can do. Second one would be better for safety reasons, but would involve a bit more work... have to see if I can get my lazy backside out of bed...
