Rear Deck solution

Rear Deck solution:

I'd like to run this idea past you guys on the list...

As mentioned by numerous ppl here, their rear deck is falling apart, and
rubber straps have long since busted.

I've contemplated getting 1/2" plywood, painting it w/ black latex,
cutting speaker holes and covering it w/ automotive carpet. And since you
don't want it cracking in half, it's easy to get ahold of L-shaped
aluminum bars which would be easy to drill and attach as supports from
below. 

What ya'll think??

As for replacement straps, wouldn't it be possible to fashion something
out of nylon, or something similar?
