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

Use protecto wrap. product is called protecto seal 45. Same thing as dynamat but a fraction of the cost. You can go to home depot and buy it in the roofing section. Any roofing and gutter tape will work as long as it has aluminum backing and tar on the other side. Make sure you use a degreaser to clean the surface before you apply it. As far as filling the gaps in the trunk lid, use expanding foam. Buy a can of "Great Stuff" expanding foam. Fill everthing that is hollow in the trunk lid. Make sure you use gloves cause the foam doesnt come off your skin for a month or so. The trunk didnt rattle anymore though. PM me for more info.
