Sub slide around

I have an evo8 and in my trunk, I have a kicker 15 in a sealed enclosure box. The damn thing slides around everywhere if I even turn even slightly aggresive.!!! Any suggestions? It moves so much that it pulls on the wires and rips them out of the amp!!!

Staple some velcro (hook side) to the bottom.

Use some some fixture to hold it in place. I have a box and a little piece of wood holding it in place.

i got some strips of sheet metal and made some homemade L-brackets, then screwed them into the top of the box and screwed the other end into the beam on the roof of the trunk near the speakers. Its a different approach, instead of holding it down like everyone does, i attached it to the beam just behind the seats near the speakers. It works GREAT.

If you don't really care how it looks get a bungee cord with a hook on each end to hold it.
