Hmm well there is no definitive answer as it depends what is causing the looseness. However my suggestions would be:

1. Don't use adhesive Velcro; I had this for a while and it wasn't great.

2. Adhesive Magnet Strips work very well and these are what I will continue to use. I did however super glue them on after the glue weakened.

3. Try/Buy another ashtray and see if you can see why it is loose. Modify the new or old ashtray appropriately.
 
How about try a different ashtray before you buy another? When I get my car back I'll bring it to work one day?

Like you say - depends whats causing the looseness.
 
Won't help me lol as mine is now permanently modified unless i fancy pulling off the super glue...
 
So you've modified the dash rather than the ashtray?
 
I have Magnetic strips on both the dash and the ashtray so it sticks together :)
