I was thinking about putting some 8-inch subs in my doors but i just read that it will rattle the doors real bad...what can i do to prevent this? I have never opened up the guts of my door can u put plenty of sound deading in there? Will that stop the rattles? Also does the subs in the door have to be shallow mount to fit? What is a good 8 inch sub? pionneer has no 8's on their site but primeir does but they are alittle pricey for me i dont need anything crazy just wantin to add some bass but it dont have to be crazy

I wouldn't put sibs in the door just for the simple fact that there are too many moving [and expensive] parts in the door for all that vibration. Subs also tend to be directionless sound when installed properly so it would matter much where you installed them.
One of my MR2T friends has his 12 in the frunk and it feels fine in the car even at speeds with the turbo screaming.
[And yes I meant "F"runk laugh.gif ]
