recently got a 12JLW3 in a box with phoenix gold amp on the back. only had it a few days and i am worried that someone could easily smash a window and pull up door pin which would unlock the whole car or just get in from rear window. And help them selves to my hard earned belongings.

i was wondering how some of you have or might secure their sub in their car. i was thinking of a big steel bar that goes over it with a padlock.

just that at my uni in the car park i normally use there has been alot of smashed windows and my mates room mate car was broke into in broad daylight 2 days ago. so i've decide to take my sub at for the time being till i can do something to make it harder for them to knick it.

sounds good

its so annoying having to worry about what could happen and having to think how to prevent it. Why can't they just respect other peoples stuff and go and earn their own money to buy the stuff! But i guess people just take the easy option.

anyway would it be easy to put bolts through. would u put them in the box or put a frame around the sub box?

use brackets, drill them into the sub box, then screw the brackets to what ever, and to lock botls you just use 2 nuts on the bolt, that is used for locking.

i think i know what you mean. so drill holes in bottom of sub box and bottom of my car. then push bolts up through the bottom of the car and do them up inside the box. and then put the sub back in. or were you thinking of summit else?

just thought of a boot popper. where could i get that from?
