Whats Best To Fix Rattling?

Dynomat? Some type of Spray?

This is my first system so im trying to learn everything i can now..

What seems to vibrate the most are the sides of the trunk and the top. and of course the license plate.

Dynomat works great but there are all types of things you could do. Epanding foam is great for trunks and body panels, or foam insulation strips works to. Try to specify what you need and we can tell you what works best where.

I used the Dynomat trunk kit and that helped a lot. But new rattles still develop and you can still hear that rattling noise when the subs are booming and your standing next to the car. For inside the car, which is what I care about how it sounds, I've used foam insulating strips like mentioned above and crammed them inside every place I could, which worked pretty well.

2 rolls of extreme 3 rolls of regualr (dont waste your time with regular, i used it for the bottom of my trunk and my doors and didnt liek it) 2 cans of spray

silenced a LOT of noise, especially road noise

ill have to investigate the xtreme dynomat option. And quieting that road noise sounds like a good idea also.. How much does the xtreme run?

I would use spray instead of sheets.

spray doesnt work worth half a damn and doesnt cover very much space either

fro the license plate:
go to any hobby store and buy yourself a shitload of rubberstoppers and pack them between you license plate and the trunk of you car it should get rid of the plate rattling.

That is exactly what i am using to quiet the rear of the hatch...the damn body panels rattle, and it is not even from the stereo!
Stripping out the rear and going wround the perimeter with the foam to quiet it down.
