i need to bolt down a 12" sub and a small amp to the bit where the rear seat used to be
has to be solid
cant go above spare and there is no back seats
so needs to be fixed down
amp could go next to spare so that i could work out
just how to solid'ly bolt down sub box

have you got a false floor, or is it straight into the metal?
i used some L shaped brackets 2 on each side of the box, screws into the box and then into the floor. wont move for shit

Velcro is the best bet for you as moby said, just make sure you use araldyte or loctite super glue to bond the velcro pads to whatever.
Velcro can be very strong

just test the strenghth, so you dont go driving along and slam on and a sub smacks you inthe back of the head, may hurt a little.
