Well my trunk rattles like crazy (2000 watts). And it sounds like its the locking mechanism in the trunk. If i push the trunk from the outside just under the A emblem it stop but i have to push in pretty hard to make it complete stop. What can i do, i know dynamat but can i do anything else? Like tape the lock or something, i dunno ,thanks in advance

 

i used tape and the metal to metal rattle stopped remember it is a temperary fix

 

you just took off the carpeting and taped it? what exactly did you tape and where is it

 

Is that 2000watts rms or is that max? Cause i'm getting two type R's in my tsx and tis 3000watts max and 1000rms combined. Is this rattling only noticable outside or is it inside too? Thanks

 

I have 2 12 DVC TYPE R's in my car and I am running over 1100watts into 2ohm load and my trunk rattles like my trunk is going to pop open. Even with Dynomat, it will rattle unless you put quite a few layers to it. Dynomatting will take 90% rattle from your trunk if you do it right.

 

Hey I remember you replying to my other thread so you finally put in the type R's? you said the dvr type R's are nuts this is the model i'm getting 2 swr-1222d. Shit I didnt ask for dynomat I'm getting it done this saturday how much is that going to run me and is it easy to do it yourself?

 

I think he taped the little bar that the trunk latch latches around. The tape will work for a bit, but you will have to replace/fix it every once in a while.

You can also adjust the latch on the trunk side (not the trunk lid/door) so it shuts a little bit tighter and that should stop the rattle, but it might mean you have to push a bit harder to close the trunk.

 

i just taped the latch until i can dynomat but that latch is the only "real" rattle ive noticed.

 

You must not have a wing

 

not yet ,but when i do ill be sure to put a rubber seal between connection points on the wing.

 

with over 1000 watts, I think almost any trunk is going to rattle regardless.

 

Mine rattles ridiculously with 1400 watts, but i'm hoping dynamat will help me out

 

mine rattles with 350 watts and dynamat on the trunk lid, go figure

 

where exactly do i put the tape, i have my whole lining off i put foam around the latch cable but still rattles like a mofo

 

:killer: TURN THAT MUSIC DOWN!! Kids these days.
