Default Looking for Sedan trunk and mounting hardware

I am looking for a sedan trunk and mounting hardware. I have seen some where the spare mounts behind the trunk. Any leads?

They have both tapered (sedan) and straight (coupe\roadster) back trunks. Not cheap but trunks are vinyl covered and felt lined 22-gauge galvanized steel whereas cheaper ones are wood. They also have racks and extensions for rear spare but I think trunk mounts behind spare.

I have a Kari Keen trunk which was a popular dealer add on in the day. Look it up and you'll find lots of info. Since it replaced the rear spare it had a breacket to mount the spare directly on the trunk. When opened the whole top sides and back dropped down with the spare going under. I don't have the bracket or the mounting pieces but you could just mount it on a rack. I'll post pics if you like.

I have my trunk mounted behind the rear spare. Works well... except that the lug nuts are a little tricky to remove with the trunk mounted... I just use a socket and ratchet... works well.
