My carpet keeps slipping and sending my sub flying >.< Ideas?

Every time I hit boost my sub flies into the other side of the trunk because the carpet slides out from underneath.

I have no idea what I can do to fix this. Anyone had this problem before??? >.<

I gotta fix this quick!

bolt, or strap the box down to a srtuctural part of the car, that way your box won't move around, or what you should be more concerned with, is if you get into an accident, it doesn't kill you, or someone else.

Personally, not letting your box bounce around in the back, or trunk would fall under that category too

I have 4 big bolts in my trunk, where the body is bolted to the frame, look under the carpet, there has got to be something there..

They do not

Actually, that's probably a good thing right?

I just made a small hole in the box and my trunk. Its the trunk so I dont mind it having a couple of holes
