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 once bought this auto insulation stuff that goes under the carpet in your car to deaden road noise on a VERY noisy '87 Pathfinder I once owned. It cost me 20 bucks for a roll of it, which was adequate to line the front seat floors with, and it worked pretty well, It's got some fiber composite stuff on one side and foil on the other (to shield heat). It did great.

Maybe this combined with that spray-on black rubberizing stuff might do pretty okay?

Dont get me wrong, the stuff works great! that's why it cost so much, And if that is the effect that your going for then that's even better; go for that effect.

As for me, i just wanted to make it stop banging. I drive a convertible so a hardcore sound system setup isnt really practical, if i dont loose it one direction, i'll just loose it another. There is NO compression in a convertible. lol. So there is no reason for me to direct the sound.

I'm just answering the question of how to stop the thing from rattling.

For goodness sakes, red94celicast just use the dynomatt, it's the only thing that will work apparently. rolleyes.gif

lol
