    Strap it to the side of your head :P Just secure it to the floor dont let it move around and face it away from the passengers, ie to back of the car, or face it upwards

    In most cases it is best to fire a sub backwards towards the rear window. This isn't so much of an issue with ported boxes as the majority of the bass comes from the port instead.

    If you can, angle the box slightly so the sub is facing the window. Its a bit of a lottery. Just try a load of different positions and se what you like best before bolting it down.

    I think that was me. Apparently, if you make your box too small, putting loft insulation in it, has the same effect of making a bigger box. To do the reverse, just put some blocks of wood in it to make it smaller. Your mate's bass may have been rubbish because he had the wrong size box. Make sure yours is correct.

    when buying any good sub itll always say in instructions or paperwork with the correct or ideal volume size of box to put it in.
