Finding rattles is very annoying. Before you start spraying anything, you need to find the rattle. Is there anyway you can turn off the mids and highs, just so the bass is playing?
If you can do that, turn the bass up loud as hell, and find every rattle. somethimes you can get away with stuffing a sock or something like that.

i would recommend you stay away from the foam (liquid foam crap) and save and dynotmat your WHOLE trunk. Not only does dynomat stop your rattles, it also make the ride ALOT quieter if applied correctly. it also adds hella weight. but if you got a system, that shouldnt matter to you anyways.


The rear deck and behind the liscence plate is where my worst rattles came from.

I used dynamat in my trunk and front doors.. and I can honestly be the guy to admit to you.. that it makes your ride a lot quieter.. especially with those loud high performance low profile tires we use.

When I get more money and time. I plan to buy more dynamat and continue dynamatting the other parts of the car I missed.

A lot of rattling came from the trunk lid of my car.. THat has been stopped by applying dynamat.. now when you turn it up really loud.. the spoiler (brake) light rattles a bit.

Other than that.. it's good.

My rear deck still rattles.. but that's because the area in the middle by the center brake light on the rear deck is constantly bouncing off the rear windsheild when I pound my bass. I'll probably end up either shoving a sock in there OR I'll shove something underneath and this way it'll be pressed up and I won't have this sock in the rear windshield.

For my license plate I fatmatted it, then put a 1/4" layer of neoprene foam on it, stops the rattle quite nicely.
