Greetings,

How you guys secure your subwoofer box from moving inside your trunk?

Thanks

drive like takumi, you just have to keep the water from spilling over. joking

well my box is heavy enough, plus it's carpeted, both the box and the trunk so it won't move for normal driving.

I used to have amp rack before and was made in a way that my amp rack interlocks with my subwoofer box. Even I ran over high bump also it doesn't move at all...ha..ha... I have taken out my amp rack and therefore now I have to drive like girlie liao. Any close picture that I can refer to?

buy sub with triple magnet sure box wont move one, hehe....somore use 1" mdf haha heavy kaw kaw....

some use velcro, some use nylon strap, but best is screw the box to the floor permanently, confirm wont move one, haha...

i had mine bolted to the chassis last time, can feel low bass rumble thru your seat, just from a 10" sub, hehe....

i think anti slip mat may prevent box from moving sideway but not from 'jumping' when crossing bump   /66

last time i had a jazz where it had bolts on the cargo floor for the clip thingy to put a strap to hold your cargo down.   we took that thing out and used the bolt to hold down the wooden floor, and then screw on the sub box onto the floor.
