Sound dampening of the trunk Options

[red94celicast]

Ok i'm just ready to put my system in(2 12" kicker L5's) and all im looking for is a cheap sound dampening product that i can use in the trunk so it doesn't rattle my car. i dont wanna spend $50-100 on dynamat or fatmat when i can get same results with something much cheaper. now i heard corkboard is just as good. if there isnt anything else i could find at home depot i'll probably use that. list what u used to sound dampen ur trunk and any other good materials or tips to use on when doing my trunk.
thanks

i will agree to an extent. It really depends on your application.

However i was just posting as requested:

list what u used to sound dampen ur trunk and any other good materials or tips to use on when doing my trunk.

For my 2 - 15's, my $5.00 walmart blanket is perfect. My trunk dont rattle; and that is what i was trying to accomplish.

Dynomat does reflect sound. It is not possible for that flemsy foam sheet wraped in shiny foil to stop all & massive amounts kinetic energy. Your box vibrates your Entire car, this matte isn't going to stop that. It is psychically impossible.

It does, however, help.

I think legit94 is recommending this based on much larger applications; or commercial application. And he is 100% correct in advising you as to the *PROPER* way to do it.

I'm giving you a peice of advice that works for me who has other obligations; and cannot afford 150-200 bucks on insulation.

You know the reason that it vibrates- hence Rattles. You can make your own conclusion on how to fix the problem
