Default Boot build

Started doing my boot build yesterday nothing fancy just something simple, but i am a bit stuck on what i can do to stop it bouncing about when i go over big bumps in the road i was thinking of drilling 4 holes in the floor and bolting it down?, im going to be filling in the gaps round the edges.

Install consists of
2 x 10" square kicker L5 subs
JBL GTO7001 amp
Directed audio 1.2 farad cap
Alpine headunit with changer
2 sets of Orion Cobalt CO650 6.5 inch Coaxial Speaker

i screwed mine to the floor

but if you jack the rear end up. drill around the well (spare) then bolt it down.
even better, put some foam under where you bolt. will stop a little vibration

i put 2 x 12", 2 amps, 2 capasitors. and still get to use the spare



just some times does your hear in with the boot spoiler.

Its only temporary fitted going to be ripping it out to sound deaden the boot, im also going to be putting some thin loft insulation under the false floor and bolt it down.

I have got rid of the spare wheel an put some tyre weld and the AA card in
