How to keep box from shifting
Sunday, March 26, 2006 2:59 PM
Hey guys,

I just installed my system today. One l5 in a custom box paired up withthe kicker kx600.1. Sounds amazingly loud, i am pretty damn impressed. Anyhow, my only concern is the box shifting and tugging on my wiring, i know i can make some brackets, but i am afraid of drilling down into the bottom of the trunk, i dont want to make holes in my car. Any idea on how to keep this thing put?

Put some of that no-slip rug material under the box, and under the carpet if that moves.

can also silicone a wooden brace to the metal floor under the carpet and screw it to there. Industrial velcro works good to that way you can remove if you need to.
