How do i get rid of the rattling? It's coming from the back piece around my license plate panel and right above the bumper and that piece. I would like to know if anyone has any idea how to make it rattle less because every time may subs starts to kick it rattles and it sounds pretty annoying and ulgy from outside, you can even hear it from the inside. I tried tightening all the screws and putting in some cushion strips ( dont know what you call it) but still rattles. Any idea would be helpful. Thanks

I would suggest putting some re-inforcement behind your license plate, like some Dynamat or something similar. Search around Ebay for their license plate kits.

^^^^^What he said! Dynamat helps with rattling A LOT! You might want to try and dodge from spending a little money but trust me, it works!

Try duct tape the whole back of your plates, yes its ghetto but it worked for me and really inexpensive

Used Dynamat like some of you guys recommended...it quiet the license plate thingy a little but the sad thing is i dont have a spare tire and the whole thing on the bottom is rattling like crazy because its open there is no weight in there to reduce the rattle...(I threw away my spare tire because it was bald and wires were almost out from previous owner)... biggrin.gif any suggestion on how to stop the rattling from that area now????..
