This is an A/V question but I don't mind answering...

I screwed mine down. I used 2 90 degree stainless steel joints for building houses and tacked it down to the faux floor. It doesn't move anywhere.

They look like a 'L' shape when you turn them to the side. I put them down on the front side of the box because I don't want the box being thrown back if I take off like a mad man.

I anchored the crap out of mine with chains going from my amp rack, to a metal hanger in the back of the trunk. Doesnt slide much. Cant see/hear the chains and if anyone wants to steal it, I guess they are gonna have a fun time.

this is exactly what I was looking for!! i am getting my box put in very soon ( next few days) and the box flys everywhere right now. i was thinking of using bungie cords hooked to a loop i found near the top of the pass through. its hard for me because i have the trunk tray, so i cant really drill into it. i also have the L shaped brackets that you were talking about earlier. i might consider velco if its strong enough. any other suggestions considering i have the trunk tray?
