Hey, I had to get a new (standard) back box as mine fell off through old age.
The new one that has been fitted appears to be fine until the car goes over a bump and the box then moves slightly (as designed) but now it rattles off the side of the spare wheel well.
What can be done to stop it?
It has the same rubber mounts hanging it on as the old one had and i dont think the box is any larger.
Any help much appreciated

re-adjust the fitting? further forward/back.... or tighter rubbers?
that or just mask the problem by covering the offending areas with fire proof padding.
It will prob be hitting the axle, thats where mine hit, till i re-mounted it

Cheers, Was reading using the ever helpful search function and read about harder rubber mounts which i think would sort it.
Also Someone mentioned Vectra mounts to hold the box tighter up to the bottom of the car?
