I just got a 10w7 installed and my car is rattling horribly. Is there any tips from anybody on where to look for obvious rattles. Or do I need to put in some dynmat or whatever that stuff is. Thanks again

You NEED to find out what RATTLE first....dynamat would help, but unless you want to spend a few hundred bux and lot of labor in putting the dynamat everywhere. You need to find what part or place that is rattling.

Hunting down rattles is a very time consuming job.

These rattles could come from anything on the body to the interior panels.

Where is the sub installed?

If it's a GS - check the rear seat "middle" seatbelt housing under the rear shelf. Mine was buzzing badly, first I removed the black plastic housing and then I removed the seatbelt all together.

The license plate is usually one of the worst offenders in an install like this. Using sound deadening or foam behind the plate and securing it down with 4 screws if it isn't already will be a big help there.

Also, try holding down on the trunk lid while it's playing, see if that makes a difference. If so, you can try tightening the latch a little, or deadening.

You'll basically have to try and listen carefully and experiment with things like this until you track down the individual rattles and take care of them. Time consuming, but well worth it.
