Mounting Amp/subwoofer more securely
A little while ago I posted how my car was broken into and my Amp and Subwoofer stolen, <A HREF="http://www.mx-3.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb. ... 8&t=000149" TARGET=_blank>here is the link</A> if you want to read about it.<P>My question is when I go to replace the amp and subwoofer in the spring, can anyone suggest a better way or better spot to mount the amp that would make it more difficult for someone to steal.<P>They only took the amp and subwoofer because basically they just unplugged and dissconnected it. They left the CD-changer because it was under the passenger seat and the face plate was not there so they left that as well.<P>Would mounting the Amp under the drivers seat be a better idea?<P>As for the Subwoofer box, any ideas how I could make it more difficult for them to just dissconnect it?

Re: Mounting Amp/subwoofer more securely
when you mount the amp again make some covers for it to blend in with the stock carpet or soemthing. Also for bolts or screws use a different style, like hex heard or bolts and bolt it down good.<P>I know theres security screws u can buy that need a special driver to put them in.

Maybe I'll bolt it down then because it was mounted behind the back seat before, even if I used security screws I'm sure they could ripp it off if they wanted to since it's only the back seat.

Re: Mounting Amp/subwoofer more securely
if you want those sec. screws [irl]http://www.selectproducts.com[/url] has them. you might be able to pick up just at couple ur local shop. hex;s are the best suggestion. if you bolt ur box onto ur car, most insurance companies will cover it if its stolen again.
