sub sound
If I make A plate to put two mtx 6000 12" subs in that fits in the rear area will it sound as good as if I put it in a sealed box?
Is it safe to do this, or will it break anything?

Nothing beats the sound of subs in enclosures....especially if the subs are made for them. A free air board still works quite well (I have one), takes up less space in the hatch area (great if you store T-tops, and doesn't look too gaudy.
As long as you anchor the board down you shouldn't have any problems
