Anchoring down a false floor?


Recommended Posts

Posted

How should I go about doing this? I've had a cutout of MDF acting as the false floor in my trunk, but it hasn't been anchored down yet (Yeah, I know, bad). I figure I would just have to do something like bolts long enough to go through the wood and floor, and then a nut at the end to keep in place. I don't really know the names of screws/nuts/bolts and things like that, so bear with me. Also what kind of drill bit should I use to get through the metal of my car? Thanks for any and all help. I really want to get this floor down and in place so I can find a place to mount my amp. Thanks!

just use a unibit to get through the metal. I'd use a T-nut to sink a thread into the false floor, use a pair of nuts (so they lock in place) to get the height right and a lock washer and lock nut (with the nylon ring) on the bottom. perfection done right

Get some cobalt drill bits (kinda of heavy duty), and find some for the size hole you need, also for the bolts size. :pardon:

Thanks for the quick replies guys! I'll probably end up doing what Jay suggested. It's awesome to be on a board like this :D

Oh and don't worry tacoma, I've been paranoid about that ever since I started car audio! I've come to find my tank is under the rear seats :)
