No experience of Cabs mate but I believe they are located in the rear quarter panels?
Assuming the size is again 5.25 but wait for that to be confirmed!

the rears are the same size make sure they are quite flush at the front (2/3way) as they will cause a bulge in the panels if they are protruding to much from the woofer

i have twin 12 type r, but i found if i wanted them installed i would need to take alot of my boot space! most people go for one 10" under roof compartment with the amps. Leaves you with plenty of boot space as well.
Heres a few pics of boot installs i found:
this ones a 12" with a custom ported box -

I think it takes too much room..
this is a nice install with a 10" type r. These subs can handle alot of bass!!


and my favourite install as it looks so clean -


The box goes all the way behind the amp as well, just sink in a bit so the amp is flush..

but rear quarter has very little mounting depth.
