What's wrong with velcro? It works, and, cosmetically, it doesn't look like ****.

Oh, not my box, just my amps. My boxes that I've had in my truck were bolted in where the seats used to be... See I had carpet underneath my panel that I built and velcro held the amps just fine. You could flip it upside down and the amps would stay on there. Don't underestimate how strong that stuff is. It's a ***** to pull off.

The topic of the thread was mounted speaker enclosures, and that's what my velcro comment was referring to.

Yeah right now my subwoofer box is just sitting in my trunk not secured to anything, I used to use steel cables or trailer straps but this time I can't find a good holding spot in my trunk so I've just been taking corners carefully and stop slowly. Donno why I'm not securing it but winter is coming and I'm gonna take my subs out in a month or so anyway.

Steel cables work really well btw if you can find good mounting points.

For those of you not wanting to drill a couple holes in your floor, grow some balls. People deform, rework, and otherwise mangle their vehicles for this hobby, and you wont pop a few screws through your floor underneath the carpet to hold your box in place.
