Both Summit racing and JEGS sells universal trunk mount kits (cables, box, straps, hold downs, etc.) - from personal experiance the plastic box they provide doesn't fit well in our rear finder area. I believe BMR sells a metal tray to hang off the frame rail back there thats a much better fit and looks a helluva lot better.
Word of advise, since your going to be running a lot longer positive cable from the battery this way, go with a 1-0 gauge cable.

lead acid requires a sealed box.
if you plan on going to the strip you are required to have a external kill switch also
