A couple smaller bits of grip to keep other stuff from sliding. Works OK.

The hook side will grab the trunk fuzz no problem. I threw this Velcro on the bottom of my sub box. I can literally move the entire car with the box. If I ever need to get it out of there I'm going to have to either cut the box or the trunk floor... Thought it would still slide around so I covered the entire bottom of the box with velcro, slid it into place on a plastic bag, then pulled the bag out. In reality 1 strip would've probably held it...

Also have a small cardboard box I toss crap in (should just buy a legit trunk organizer but the box was free and fit perfectly ). Just stuck velcro on the corners. That thing hasn't budged at all either.

That's how the cheap 3 pocket trunk organizer I got free from my insurance agent is. It only has a couple strips of Velcro on it and it is rock solid stuck to the trunk floor. I can put a couple gallons of milk in it and it doesn't move at all.

The weathertech trunk liners have slots you can buy attachments for to secure boxes etc in the trunk.

Weather tech cargo liners have slots that allow you to secure stuff.

I'm on the fence since these are way more practical than the 86 engraved factory one.

Those look really nice. I didn't know they existed for the rubber liner. Santa brought me a WeatherTech cargo liner for Christmas, so I'm definitely going to get a set of those.

I just plonk stuff in or around the raised spare tyre donut thingy in my boot liner, and things don’t move.

That said, my boot liner doesn’t fit so well on my spare. I suspect it was designed for a skinnier tyre than the 86 is currently running. I’m toying with adding a 20mm thick EVA foam layer between the boot liner and the tools, though the boot is already pretty tiny.

The floor of the trunk of my 2013 FR-S is flat.

Is yours different?

OK, I give up, what keeps the groceries from falling out of the bags? -
