    there is a bar on the back of the deck lid that works out perfect.

    ohh i see..thanks!....anyways i was hella bored and too excited to let Jenny (my G) sing so i decided to figure out a way. i went through a buttload of all kinds of scraps of all sorts of materials and i found these metal frames. so basically they're on train tracks but the sub is soo heavy it wont slide forwards and backwards so yeah...

    ps. anyone else name their car?

    i had L brackets, but that shit didnt help..for long.

    i have two 12's in a box and that bitch kept sliding back until i put a full size wheel/tire in the spare tire well and apparantly that made the floor more Level and the box never slid back again. lol

    Use the bungy cord. Buy two of them and remove the clips and just put it under the subs. Mine don't move at all and they are hidden so u can't really tell.
