sub box moves - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #13571 11 posts Started by Crzybakerdog
ok while ive had my golf clubs out of the car everynow and then. that damn sub box which was nicely built (not by me) keeps sliding to the back and making me pissed about so i have decided to buy some brackets and drill them into the cardboard that holds the spare down. I was hoping someone could tell me what kind of brackets to use , best to use for holding 2 12" in a box against the back seats, other possible solutions. this is getting annoying and i want to get on this project asap. Also do anyone know if the back of their back seats are also made out of hard cardboard and kinda just hanging off like mine are >frown.gif> it looks tacky and wanted to see if there was anyway to fix those as well?
i used a couple lil L brackets.
screwed them to the box, then the floor

or if you have a rear strut bar you can try to hang something from that...
Ya know that carpet backing on the back of your seats? Look where it is fastened to the trunk (it should be done by a plastic 'button like' thing attached to the trunk flooring. I cut slits in my carpeting and buttoned the plastic things through the slits in the carpet. It looks like it was meant to be there and I've never had a problem with it. If you want me to take a picture of it, I'd be glad to do it for ya.
thats suprising, my subs dont move an inch, and i drive like i shouldent be allowed to have a lisence.

My box is jammed between the arches behind the seats in my coupe, so it takes a lot of work for me to even move it out.

can you still remove the spare with the L brackets installed?
What we did last weekend with Natalie's car was we fabricated two straps out of aluminum, and then screwed them to the underside of the sub box. We then drilled a couple holes in the trunk floor and bolted the two straps to the floor of the trunk. It's really solid, and isn't going to go anywhere.

With my next system, I'm going to bolt the enclosure into the floor from inside of the enclosure, and then put the sub in after the enclosure is bolted in. >smile.gif>

New Toyota project coming soon...
