hey guys, i was just wondering if there is a simple solution to my sub box moving around in my trunk when i make sharp turns(no, the solution is not to not make sharp turns). it sometimes ends up getting disconnected while im driving or accelerating. i dont want to bolt it down cuz i have to move in every so often. any of you ever had this problem and done something to fix it?

I was thinking aobut that same thing.. im more worried about it sliding around while driving and the subs hitting something..

longer wires?

longer wires don't stop the sub from moving.

If the box is carpeted try some Velcro?
Otherwise blot it down

but they would keep them connected...
if he doesnt want it permanently mounted i dont think the velcro will work because it tends to pull loose after a few times getting it in and out so short of a couple eye bolts in the sides and a couple short bungees im out of ideas

Isn't really a big deal. Couple L brackets would solve it. Bungee cords are quite ugly looking.

My only concern with L brackets is chopping up my trunk.. plus, what if i want to move it later
edit: typing > me

Bolt it down to the piece of "wood" that is over your spare tire location...usually there's some kind of wood there.
