MA installing zenclosures box (or similar)

Regarding those of you who have the Zenclosures box (or another one of very similar design), how do you secure the box so that it doesn't slide to the back/bottom of the trunk? I'm probably buying and installing a sub in the near future and I'd like some idea of how the box should be secured. Thanks

normally my boxes stay put in the trunk...what you can do is go to Hobby Lobby or similar craft supply store or hardware store and get some velcro...take the "toothed" side (the hard plastic teeth, not the soft fabric) and cut two pieces equal in length...peel off the backing and double them up (sticky side to sticky side). Put this under the box either on the front and back part of the bottom side or on the sides of the underside of the box. the velcro will grip to both the box and the carpet in the trunk and give you more friction stopping the box from sliding around. Plus, it helps to be concious to the fact that you've got a ~50lb box in your trunk and adjust your driving accordingly
