Default Help me mount my sub box

I built this sub box, it sounds great, fits well, but I don't know how to bolt it down.





I know that the gas tank is behind the back wall so I need to be careful there, but I have no clue as to the best way to secure it.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,
~Jay

Because it is taller than it is deep, I also need to secure the top. Do you think the fiber glass is strong enough to hold a screw?

Find the plugged jig holes on the rear floor, pop the plugs out so you have hole to secure it through, use big washers as not to crack the fiberglass
