Default Need to reduce trunk rattle.

Anyone have any experience with this? I'm currently leaning towards having this done professionaly, but the trunk is the only place I'm experiencing a lot of rattle, at least as far as I can tell.

I've got polk's DB212 box back there with a kicker pushing it and when I crank it up it gets pretty loud. Sounds awesome inside, but not so much outside.

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Was the noise there b4 you installed the speaker? There have been postings about headliner vibration, inside trunk liner. Check to see the spare isn't loose, or check the hangers on the muffler, tailpipe assy.

Well, no the sound wasn't there before I installed the subs because the trunk didn't have a couple of subwoofers blasting into them =p

From outside the car it doesn't appear to be one particular part of the trunk, just the whole thing in general.
