Another Solution for trunk rattle

If u trunk still keep rattling after u've tried "OPGForce"'s solution, here's another one for u.

A minute ago, i tried OPGForce's solution to try to get rid of the rattling, but it didnt work..........
after that, i tried to see which part of it is actuall rattling, and i found out is the brake light(not the one on the trunk lid with signal one,
is the one in the "celing" trunk.

So i decided to grab a eraser and cut it into pieces then shuf it in between the gap between the brake light and the trunk.
Then, no more stupid rattle for me.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Yeah, i've tried that before, but then the top of the light and the rear deck rattled against each other, and one of the eraser pieces fell in.

My trunk rattle alot too, but its not the lights cause I checked them, its the latch I think, I just need to adjust it so its tighter, I will do that when the car is out of the shop.

Put in some dinamat that could stop the rattling trunk, but I costs an arm and a leg... well at least where I live.

Yeah, it's really embaressing when you can hear the rattle from the outside. I spent like 90 bucks on a dynamat trunk kit, but some of the rattling is still there.

Ive pretty much got the trunk lid, rear deck, and liscense plate rattle gone, but the underneath of my car flexes when the bass hits and rattles like a ****. Anyone got any DIY info on how to fix this?

And then there is a vibrating from that little vent on the inside of the trunk, behind the fabric on the driver's side!

Just stick your hand inside the side bumper and yank that rubber flap out. Sure water might get in, but it's better than having that flatulance sound.
