This post has been up for a while and you're the first with any kind of lead. I bet we would have to cut out the rear floor pan and weld in a new one and like I hypothesized, ditch the sapre for the M-mobility kit or something. I would rather have that big battery in my car than the little racing battery I have, just for the peace of mind.

no way ... the 323 still has the spare hanging underneath from what i've seen in the ETK. and also from what i've seen, that isn't the stock sub (look at the EBA disc and you'll see complete instructions for retrofiting the sub - it attaches to one of the rear seats.

to echo clex2's comments, i LAUD your efforts suprnova! if you can get them to grab detailed pics of where it sits, how it attaches ... ie, peeling up the carpet and all the layers so we can see what the hatch floor looks like, if there's a battery mat, how the battery is secured, where the ground strap shown in the ETK attaches ... all the possible details ... that would be unbelievable! i'd love to move my battery into the location you show and do it completely factory and do a complete writeup on how it needs to be done (if clex2 doesn't beat me to it!). anyone with a 6 swap or even those who want a little better weight distribution.

I'M VERY EXCITED! YOU ROCK!
