What causes bad trunk rattle
What causes bad trunk rattle I'm about to get a couple subs from a friend, and I was just wondering if anybody knew what it is that causes that horrid trunk rattle. I've noticed a few cars around town with systems that I'm sure cost a lot of money, but they just have that God awful rattle like a woodpecker is hammerin away at their car with a screw. Sub quality? Enclosure quality? I just need to figure it out before I get mine installed. Also, which boxes do you guys recommend? Or should I just go with custom work?.....I'm gettin an NES put in there somehow. Even though I have a PS3, I have to pull out the classic.

haha, seriously though, we have a bunch of panels that vibrate, the spare tire/jack will vibrate if its in, tail lights, all sorts of stuff. It is hard to get a card that doesn't vibrate at all. You have to do a pretty good job sound deadening to eliminate all of the rattles, but if you do, your system will sound 10x better.
For me its the tail lights. I can stand behind the car and push on them when the bass hits and it stops most of the rattles for me. The next biggest one sounds like a heat shield or something. Perhaps the sheet metal guard on the gas tank?
