very VERY bad.. at least in my car... :o

 

If you get a LOUD enough Sub(s) you won’t hear ANY rattles.

Everyone else will, but YOU won’t.

Well, it depends on several things. The most common, a trunk mounted subwoofer facing out will cause a lot of rattling on the license plate, which you will hear inside the cabin. Companies such as Tweeter make license plate clips to stop the rattling. Interior panelling may rattle to a degree, but if you're looking for enough bass to shake the car in the first place, you'll likely not hear it.

 

I need to dynamat my rear bumper.

 

at least in all hondas...

 

dammit

 

best thing to do is get an infinity basslink..there's not enough bass to make everything rattle :P but it does sound good and you can find one on ebay for around $250. good luck.

 

no.. my Integra handled the bass really well

 

What I did was use Trimbrite Door Edge (for trucks) and put it around the trunk. Definitely have no trunk rattle but it is not sticking well to the lip of the trunk. May have to find a different and better door edge....

My sub can blast and I have no rattles...

 

yes.. i have the trimbrite too. That did eliminate the trunk-to-body rattling, but now I notice rattling within the trunk lid (probably the torsion bars or wires or something.)

 

weird, my integ didn't, even after installing dynamat...
