Rattle Stop!

Does anybody know a good cheap way to stop all that damn rattling, I got a kick *** system but you don't hear the music thumping down the street it's just pure rattling from the trunk, I don't get looked at for the good music, I get looked at for all the rattling in the back of the car, can anybody help

- Sound deadening (sheets or spray)
- Carpet padding, sofa cusion foam
- expanding foam spray (home depot, used when installing windows and doors to seal them)
- Double stick foam tape or velcro behind the license plate
- Glue, lots and lots of glue (not really though)
- TURN DOWN THE VOLUME (last resort)

but you should be more concerned on the interior sound quality rather than the exterior....

yeah, what darryl said. but the cheapest would be the volume suggestion.

I have dynomat on my rear wing on my Protege 5 and you wouldn't even know that I have a system in the car. People think that my system is weak....and then get IN the car!!!

Use B-Quiet. It'll do the job and it's a heck of a lot cheaper than dynamat.
