    Default Boot and bumper rattles

    Gday i've just started to install audio into my car but i am having troubles with heavy rattles from the boot, bumpers, lisence plates and such. What can i use to hold them in place and stop the rattles.

    Hello,

    Try pumping Liquid nails into the holes of the boot lid, I did that to mine and once its dry it will brace the boot lid once again, and if your still not satisfied get Dynamat Extreme, and cover your boot lid with that and that will stop any rattling from the boot lid.

    As for the license plate, take it off put a layer of Dynamat on there, then put and extra 2 screws through your license plate.

    Once again, if u can be bothered take off your rattling bumper/s and cover them up with dynamat as well from the inside. This will make the bumper more dense and less prone to vibration.

    Make sure you make a VERY clean surface before applying the dynamat.

    Give it a shot
