Default 6x9 Speaker hatch?!?!?!

Ok I got some 6x9 speakers for my jeep this morning and I'd like to put them in my hatch , my problem is they don't fit, I've heard of ppl modifying them but don't want to do all that cutting , so my idea was to jus cut a little out of the hatch but mount the speakers like this (photo 1) and then just use a bolt and nut to hold it throughout the other side (photo 2) Will this work , will it rattle ? Personally I think it will work but I'd like yalls opinions. Thanks guys !

That looks like it's going to buzz like crazy.

The only way I can see it working without rattling is everywhere on that panel that uses one of those push pin things to attach it to the hatch get some sort of screw and attach it to the hatch at all those points.
