Securing 4080 box in a sedan?

Hey all.

I have an 04 sedan with a 10" sub mounted in the passenger side 4080 box.

The fit is great, but I notice the box can tip over fairly easily. As I will be tracking my car this summer and don't want to track without a deafening amount of Slayer and Prodigy in the background, what's a good way to secure the box in-place?

I need it to be somewhat easily removable in case I ever need to get under the trunk floor.

I tried velcro on the base, but that isn't enough. Don't want to drill the enclosure if I don't have to, but I'm thinking about that.

suggestions?

I remove it for those kind of days, otherwise you could mount a simple L bracket at the front and rear to keep it in place.

Definitely remove it for track days.

But for other days, some small doorstop-style wedges can help out. Literally wedged into place.
