When you say you installed 4 amps, you mean 4 non Bose amps? If so, that won't work. Bse is 2 ohm system and typical aftermarket car amps are 4 ohm system.
If you want amps that work and more wattage, look for 97 to 00 Eldorado Bose amps. These Eldo Bose amps are same width and height but a little taller. C4 Bose amps are 50W and Eldo version is 100W.
Rear will fit with no mod but fronts, cover will have to be built up.
Typically Eldo Bose amps are sold as speaker assembly. So, you will have to buy the entire speaker/enclosure and remove the amp for our application.

While at it, mix Elmer's glue 50/50 with water and apply 3 coats (dry thoroughly between the coats) on speaker cones. This will stiffen the speaker cones and improve the sound.
