I was recently replacing a faulty relay in the relay compartment and noticed that the whole mounting tray assembly was loose on the side next to the speaker panel. There looks to be a slim groove that the panel could fit into and hold down that side. Is the panel suppose to hold down the box assembly or is there another bolt somewhere that I'm not seeing?
Any help would be awesome. Thanks,

That's normal. The wood deck holds it down (:screwy:).
If you really want to get rid of some of the banging noises in this car, add another screw to both of the metal trays to hold them down to the fiberglass.

Please see my post number 16 with pictures in the thread below. The mounting tray is held down by two M5 screws. On mine one of the two spun in place so I had to cut it out and replace the M5 Rivnut with a new one then I installed brand new stainless steel screws.
DeLorean937 I see what you mean. There is a screw at the top center and one on the right side but none on the left. Like DMCMW Dave says the wood deck holds everything down.
