L bracket thingies... its a piece of flat metal in the shape of an L with holes on both legs... one leg screws to the box, other leg screws to bottom of trunk... your box must be mad shallow

Well, my box is pretty big (its got two 15"s), so it doesn't fall over, but for awhile it moved around...which was very bad because it ended up knocking out the cargo net ancor on the right side. I was able to (sort of) get it back in. Anyway, now I use the cargo net and two peices of styrofoam on the sides (from my amp packaging...they fit perfectly for some reason):
