Too easy. :Q You don't really want an answer do you?

find out what is rattling. Get DynaMat and "dyna" out your doors and other rattling parts. On my explorer, i have a sponge behind the license plate and i have weather stripping around the back hatch window, as well as all four doors dynamatted-out.

1. Turn it down (not an option, I know)
2. Apply damping material (aka Dynamat) to the entire trunk area, floor of the vehicle and all four doors. This will set you back about $700 or more...car audio ain't cheap.

nyeturo989: you're bound of offend some of the old farts here on ATOT. Just a friendly heads up.

ummmmmmm... ok 😕

TURN IT DOWN!

If you don't wanna do that, do what michael D said. If you can localize the rattling you can get dyna mat just for the rattling parts. If you wanna do the whole vehicle that would be a big pain in the ass!

Competition? People actually compete to see who can be more obnoxious with these things?

That would be "DB Drag Racing" or "SPL Competition" There are Sound Quality competitions as well. Your install is judged on many factors to include creativity/sound quality/quality/safety of installation/SPL.

Here's the system in my truck.


Heheh, can you say "lotsa wires?"

 

[nyeturo989]

For the record... I'm not competing or trying to show off.

also, i didnt spend extra money on my system... it came with mah suv.
