Rattling bass?!!

 

Anonymous
 
I have a 1989 Honda Civic, with two Adrenalin Subwoofers in a bandpass enclosure. I'm having a problem with the roof rattling when heavy bass notes hit, and i would like to figure out a way to put and end to this. Any inexpensive options i have, or what do i need to do?

dampen the roof using dynamat r similar.
on eBay you can get brownbread, fatmat, and others for pretty cheap.
it's a sound deadening material made to absorb metal vibration that's edhesive on one side, and comes in a large rolled mat that you cut to fit your application.

tighten down the screws and bolts around the latch, sound dampen the trunk using dynamat type materials.

lol, ya ya, Good point. What i meant to say is the space in between. Not the actual bolts but the gaps that are left in between. I guess tighter bolts still, or maybe more bolts. Thanks Glasswolf

lock-tite to tighten down the bolts themselves
rubber or cork spacers for in between
expanding spray foam for areas not exposed to the weather to silence them.
those are a few ideas.

i am wiring a 96 dodge neon. i just bought it. it had a really cheap cd player in it. and who ever wired the cd player and a 15 inch sub had no idea what they were doing. they ended up frying the power wire to the wire harness itself in the neon. they had a power wire running from inside the car in the fuse box. any suggestions on how to run a power wire. the power wire to the wire harness doesnt even have power. where can i get power to run my cd player? any suggestion would help greatly.
