u could get an L-bracket and find a spot on the floor of the boot (preferably away from the fuel tank) and drill in.

Or what some of those elastic ropes with hooks on the end, they work.

SUper GluE!:doubt:

You could just screw the L bracket into the thin bit of mdf under the carpet too

G'day guys,
what i did to instal my sub box (one 12") is a simple method but it works well, lol, unless you badly need your spare tyre. You get the wires hooked up and it set in the place where you want and then get a whole heap of about 2" - 3" self taping screws and an electric drill and at an angle drill in the screws along the front and sides to a depth of about a few centimetres into the MDF on the boot floor and the remaining out in the air, so it stops the box from sliding around. I'll take a few pictures and post them, it sounds a bit tacky but it does work n it looks fine. Hope that heaps!

in my old TR I just got a piece of metal and screwed one end to the sub box and the other above the opening into the back seat. one or 2 screws one each end of the bit of metal and voila. stayed put for about 2 years.

I've got my sub smack bang in the middle of my parcel area (Wagon)...
I think the velcro on the underside of the sub enclosure helps things... ;)
