Bass notes cause the speaker grilles to vibrate. If I push slightly against the center of the grille it stops.

I have thought of glueing flat plastic sticks in the shape of an X on the inside of the grilles.

Any suggestions on how to address the problem? I prefer to use adhesive that does not drip through the holes in the grilles.

imo take the grill off and just reglue it to the door panel will prly take care of it all

my grill on the driver side sail panel sub was rattling. I put a really thin bead of clear silicone on it, let it dry for a while, then stuck it back on. Can't tell I did anything and the silicone filled the space and stopped the rattling. Probably would work on the front too.

I used black weatherstripping cement, applied with
a toothpick.

Is one of the tabs broken off? If thats the case I would look online they shouldnt be too much.

I had the same problem. I used some sort of windshield adhesive. It was the only sticky thing I could find with a good consistency. Worked well!

If you go the caulking direction, I would recommend adhesive caulk over regular caulk. And do it from the back side, of course. I like Jimmy's idea, though. Seems like you could do it from the front side to avoid taking the door panel off. I need to get off my lazy *** and fix some rattles in my car including both of the front speaker grills myself.

None of the grille tabs are broken. In fact the grilles have never been removed. I must say I am surprised the cement/caulking around the edge of the grille cured the problem unless the grille is loose where it mates up with the door panel. I was thinking they needed some support in the center since they are thin plastic.
