I posted this in the 100 series section but can't seem to find enough help lol

I am almost done with a drawer build that has hidden subwoofers(dual for now but going with four 8" subs;). All I need is to finish off details like closing certain gaps, adding slides and a locking system. I was thinking hinged sides for the gaps but I dont know how I would support them enough to handle any type of load. Some help would be appreciated. Also, looking for things to add to the drawer build(accessories) so help with that would be good also.

Im not sure if it is obvious in the pictures but I have covered it in beige carpet to match the 100 series interior:D

I don't know how you 100 series guys support hinged "wings" but most of the 80 series stuff has supports that can be bolted to the OEM 3rd row bracket location on top of the wheel well.

I'd just put a support on each end and you should be good depending on how much weight your talking about? But the hinge will do a lot of the work if you use a piano type. Bolt a support to the speaker box section and have a faceplate to each side of the drawer fronts?
 
Scribe those babies up to the side panels, slap a support under each end and call her good to go.
 
Take a look at Mac's Custom Tie Downs also. They have several different options including tracks similar to what you posted.
