Stick a big piece of Velcro to the centre of it & it should stick to the carpet. I stick mine underneath the front passenger seat.

Disklok do a proper bag for them, they are covered in Velcro and really stick to the boot carpet. Not much about a fiver or so I think I paid for mine....

Just reach behind the passenger seat and slot it under - easy access and won't fly around.

the only problem with the footwell bein if you have a major 'incident' it can become quite a hefty and dangerous weapon

If you push the passenger seat back it traps the thing so it won't fly around if you do have an accident.

I would throw it in the bin and get a Dipol fitted. Much easier to use and effective.
I had a disklock on my last car and velcro did the trick, fixing it on the side of the bass box.

ANother one for rear passenger floor well. Fits perfectly and all my passengers stand on it, its fine.
Do you (in this carjacking climate
) want to mess about in the boot when you've just taken the security off ya car??!!!

Wheredo I get these none slip mates from......When in I ask my mates to sit in the boot and hold my disklok they're never keen for some reason....
Put mine under driver seat prolly not ideal and will cut my legs off in accident hey but there you go.

I got a non slip mat from Halfrauds about five years ago... cost about £10 and its fantastic. I got quite a weighty warning triangle and 1st aid kit in the boot and it stays put event round the tightest alpine hairpins!
