Anyway, to answer you question. It depends. It certainly doesn't hurt to do it, but there is a lot of differing opinions on whether it is neccesary or not.

erik anderson New member Username: Erik18 Post Number: 4 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Monday, April 30, 2007 - 23:56 GMT i not quite sure how to decribe it they sound fine when the trunk is closed and im in the car. What do your subs sound like when the turnk is open is it like nice clean bass or what?
Mike Fabz Silver Member Username: Afroopuff Post Number: 444 Registered: Jan-06	Posted on Monday, April 30, 2007 - 23:59 GMT are you sure the rattling is comming from the subs and not something that is rattling in your car Like for instance something the car mutes when the trunk is closed but now that it is open has the ability ot rattle?
