As per the question. I haven't got a false floor, and don't really want one again. My amp also doesn't appear to have any mounting holes, so I would need to do something about that. Go! |

[quote="MrKikker"]mount it to the back of the backseats?[/quote] Thats where I'm planning to put it, but not sure by what means yet. No mounting holes on it, so other than velcro I'm kind of out of ideas. |

[/quote] I've had it apart to repair it too, and theres no way I can add holes  Depending on how well (or not) the amp performs I may replace it anyway and this time I'll make sure I get one with holes in. Otherwise yeah, I'd just screw it down into the metal of the back seats. |

You can get heavy duty hook & loop fastener - it's pretty good stuff

Well you could do what I did. Just mounted two amps upside down on the bottom of the parcel shelf. Works a charm

You sure there no mounting holes? Some amps have little n shaped cut outs on the edges? |

No holes at all, its a good 10-15 years old this thing and I can only assume it had some kind of metal or plastic bracket that went with it originally. Few days after posting this thread up I just sat it in the boot, and its remained in place ever since, not exactly elegant but hey. Expected it to slide about all over the place but seems okay. |
