Shaking Trunk
Hey I just installed my subs and my trunk is rattling like a motha, what would be the best way to stop it
The part that is rattling is the little space above the word Alero.

weather stripping works good. Just take that piece off and run weather stripping around the edge where it makes contact with the car and put it back on and there ya go. Also you will have to do the lince plate as well.

I've used weather stripping behind the plate on my old car. Worked great.

dang, i thought i was being clever using weather stripping.
i used the stuff that is sticky on one side.
put it around my tail lights and any other place i could squeeze it into.
works great.
