Default Super strong adhesive for rear speaker boxes?

Hi,
I'm using some gladware containers as rear speaker boxes (been told they work very well), and today I attempted to mount one with screws and use silicone to seal it. To put it shortly, I failed miserably.

What is some super strong adhesive I could use to mount the boxes to the underside of the rear deck? CC told me JB weld, but I'd like to know of some alternatives I could get at an auto store or hardware store.

Thanks a lot!

You can get JB weld at either one of those stores. Auto stores have a bunch of stuff, especially if it'* two part expoxy it'* usually strong. Or there'* always Gorilla Glue...

Can you expand on using glad containers for speaker boxes? I have never heard of that, and I'm replacing my 6x9'* soon, every little bit helps I guess...
