Strapping it to the strut bar works great, and bpang1's velcro idea also works great. I have used the velcro to hold 3 different subs in the trunk of my Celica, and it's never given me a problem. I used the 1" wide velcro that comes in rolls. I use this for tiieing server wiring together.

I plan to drill/tap the floor and bolt my box to the floor through the bottom of the box, and then install the woofer. I need to check with my friendly local NASA official to see if I can run on the track with it like that first though.

A friend of mine got some eye hooks and a ratcheting strap from Home Depot. He screwed the eye bolts into the box, and put the strap through them and then around the bars behind the back seat (in a corolla, forgot what my trunk looks like). This held great, and this guy drives like a freak.

Thumbs up

I used the velcro idea, and after some hard driving, it stayed still.

I bungee corded my old sub box to my rear strut bar in my old integra. It was kind of ghetto, but it did the job and it stopped sliding around.

I mean subs in a trunk.
i got some L shaped metal things from the hardward store and drilled one end into the top of the box, and the other into the metal bar just bellow the rear dash board thingy.

Get rid of the 12" sub and put in a 15" sub Box will be bigger and will fit more snuggly in your trunk.
