I'm putting a CD changer in my car, thing is, I don't really want to be drilling holes in my car to put in a bracket (The brackets the changer come with require it)

Is there some sort of pad I can use to keep the changer still without having to drill holes?

And yes, I have heard of a radio with a USB, but I want a CD changer.

Pictures? Don't see why you need to drill holes in anything tbh?

Will get some photos in a while, car's at the menders at the minute, but the instructions say that I need to drill holes in the car to mount the brackets...
And it's going in the boot, just not sure where yet

just double side tape it to the boot carpet or use velco strips, one on the floor one on the changer - makes it removable then

I used velcro strips to hold my cd changer in place under the passenger seat in my corsa 7 years ago

Was gonna suggest fitting under seat. Velco is a great idea.

Didn't think of Velcro or double-sided tape, will have to give it a go, thanks.

I would fit it under the seat, but it doesn't fit under there... (It's a very old changer).
I'll get a photo of how I manage it in a while, off to pick the car up in a second.

Managed to get it to fit under the seat, because it's such a snug fit (Had to move those wires under the passenger seat) I managed to do it without any velcro or screws at all, I've put some double sided tape on the bottom just to keep it still.
Thanks all for the suggestions and advice!
