I swear i have asked this before but it may have been somewhere else...
How do you guys go about securing a box in the trunk? I have a kicker 12" L7 in my accord i want to put in my stang, but its in a box with a little velcro to hold it in place. Works great in my accord, but with the way i drive in my stang sometimes it will move around too much.
How should i go about securing a ~100 lb square to my trunk?

I have a ~50lb JL 12w6/enclosure in my trunk. Home Depot sells "industrial strength" velcro in a 3''x15' style. The stuff is like super-monkey-grip on any type carpet. I lined the bottom of my enclosure with it and it takes a huge amount of effort to remove it from my carpeted trunk to move around when I need to. I plan to fabricate some kind of bracket eventually but haven't taken the time yet. I would love to see other types of securing a heavy box as well. I can't see anywhere to secure it except to the metal bracket behind the seat which is a good deal away from where I want my subbox. I've considered fabbing a 1/4'' plywood floor for the trunk and securing it better that way.... I'll probably end up ponying up for the 13'' JL mustang stealth-enclosure at some point.

Or you can use a L bracket or 2 and screw them into the floor of the trunk and place the sub in between

I might do that untill i get the time to do a fully custom setup


ive pretty much got the same velcro on the box now to hold it in my accord.
I think so atleast, i know my old box did but i cant recall if i ran out or not.

Eventually i will either do like you said and custom fab my own floor/box combo or fiberglass one to fit in the side. Ive fiberglassed a mold for my accord and learned alot about what to do and what not to do so it might be a good idea. Only problem is the whole car smells like resin for a good month atleast. I did my accord box last summer and man that smell was strong in the heat, it is 100% gone now though.

i've used velcro in the past in other vehicles. works like a charm and no drilling required
