i hate it...the trunk rattles like mad with the subs and they dont even push that much. it sounds like total crap, is there anything i can do to remedy this? i did that little trick with the rubber knob things on the trunk but that only worked a little.

 

Dyna-mat!!! other than that and the rubber knob trick i wouldn't know... There is this foam that also helps with rattles but i wouldn't recommend it because once it gets old it starts to fall apart. Old as in about 6 to 12 months old...

I recomment Dyna-mat the trunk and any other part of the car like the doors that will be effected by vibrations... but if you have the time and money then i recommend just doing the whole interior of the car and the whole trunk...

 

I am having this problem in my 97 accord with my new subs. Is there any cheaper alternative to dynamat that is decent? I have heard only good things about dynamat but $100 is alot to pay for some foam in ur trunk. Anyone know of any decent sprays etc?

 

Peel n Seal... found at Lowes or a home depot or a roofing store..

 

I have dynamat all over my trunk...mine still rattles when I blast it.

Do a search, this topic is all over...but like I have said before, it is the subs moving the air inside your trunk that makes it rattle. The only thing you can do to get rid of it is point your subs either up (most mustangs have to get done like this), or point them toward the cabin. That being said, pointing them toward the back is ideal for sound levels.

So get some Dynamat, or something similar, and learn to live with it. The air pressure is just too much in an enclosed trunk to keep the trunk lid from moving.

Also, is your stock sub out? If not that will help to let some of the sound get into the cabin easier.

 

So have u used this or is this just an idea?

 

ive read a lot about it and i personally just bought a few rolls last week.. i installed one week and i feel it does help.. didnt finish my whole trunk yet, but it sounds louder inside with less rattles outside.

 

i personally would recommend RAAMmat60.... www.raamaudio.com/products.htm It's 60ml thick and priced MUCH MUCH lower than Dynamat. I've had several friends use this and they all loved it!!

You can also try FATMAT www.fatmat.com It's only about 45ml thick but it's cheaper than even the RAAMmat.

 

i have heard of peal and seal being used but it's very thin and might not give you the results your looking for. it is cheap tho!! :blaze:

 

Where in lowes would peel n seal be? I mean what is it? isn't it some roofing thing. i think i am gonna go pick some up and try it out as a first step, but i don't want 2 go 2 lowes and not be able to find it.

 

Another post of mine on a smiliar subject, and yes, it should be in the roofing section. Read those threads over if you'd like, you would be suprised at what you may read.

I think those were the two biggest things, I am probably doing mine sometime this winter, at the same time as a sub/amp. Hopefully going to do the doors too

 

Thanks that is useful info. i think i am gonna pick up some peel n seal and put it on this weekend or next week sometime. ill keep ya updated on how it turns out

 

Is there anything else i should get with the peal and seal? I will get the roller but are there any sprays or anything i should get that would help stop vibration even more?

 

I went to Lowes to get peal n seal and they didn't have any and they had never even heard of it!! then I called Home Depot and was on hold forever so then I drove over there and got the same answer!!! Where can I get this stuff for cheap?
