Why not make yourself a false floor to bolt it too? It's just a matter of a sheet of plywood and some battons, some carpeting to cover it and some nuts and bolts to bolt the thing down. Gives you somewhere to hide you amps too! My sub is in a carpeted shallow wedge enclosure so I have it velcroed to the rear seats which works nicely.

Had this in my Polo, quite neat, gave me some boot space and still had access to my spare wheel.

i cant fathem out how a false floor would get in and out easy for access, due to the plan of the floor being bigger than the boot entrance? maybe just cause i havnt done one before but i cant imagine it being difficult. also connecting the cables must be an arse.

To stop sub moving use luggage straps and the erm what you call em thingies in the boot.

To get a false boot floor in the bottom corner to the opposing top corner is wider. Once you get one end in the other can drop down.

My attempt. Did make a sheet of plastic to go over the top but never took a pic.

Didn't take me long at all. Wasn't the greatest but just at a glance it was decent. I went into detail on a few bits which I liked

Lol my boot looks exactly the same, got that storage velcro thing and a zip up electric air pump :giggle:

Except I used bungee cords at the bottom to secure my sub. :) slightly lower profile and easier to remove if needed.

Mines pretty basic. The box is secured to the brace with two exhaust clamps. If you need to move it just fold down the rear seat and flip the box over the other side of the brace.

12mm mdf. With some carpet underlay glued to the underside and some grey carpet tiles glued to the top. Use furniture blocs screwed into the the mdf to keep your sub in place.

I'll be making mine in a few weeks.

It's either going to be a custom fibre glass job built into the left hand side of the boot, or a false floor completely covering the sub whilst maintaining access to the spare wheel.

The first will be more tricky, but also lighter and nice and neat.

Mine is connected to my rear bar to keep it in place - its one of them Kicker boxes too
