[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 4092185, member: 584344"] Normally when a box is carpeted, it doesn't slide. I didn't carpet mine, infact I painted it... then put a clear coat. (Not smart) That sh*t slides all over my trunk when I turn. I ended up putting a box and my shoes behind it. To prop it up and pin it between the back of my trunk and my seats. It works, surprisingly... and I got into a little fender bender and it didn't budge (going like 15-20 MPH... my tires locked up in the rain 'cause some d*ck stopped short.) and it didn't move at all. The shoes create a nice damper to forces while still giving it enough tension to not move. It's pretty raw. [so, if all else fails, make two MDF strips for the back, and 1 or 2 for each side and just wedge it up against it. Fin. As for the bungee cords, they shouldn't make noise if they're tight... and they should also keep it in place. If the metal pieces are making sound... good ol' duct tape. It's not pretty, but it works. It's only temporary; I think you can deal with it. :P [/QUOTE]
