Need to locate a rattle
What in the rear of the Cobalt is the most rattle? It isn't the license plate.
Looking for input from the audio gurus who turn the Cobalts into bass cars.
I just have two 12s pushed by a 1000watt amp nothing major, just want that rattle taken care of. Doesn't sound good on the outside.
I think it's something above the fuel cell by the rear bumper...maybe a support?

It could be the panel in the back hitting the rear window, just my guess. I put some towels under it and I'm pushing 2 12's with 2000watts and rattles except for the rearview mirror.

anytime you put a system in your car it is gonna rattle if its anygood. go to local electronics store and get some dyno mat or i think tsunami makes some as well thats cheaper. apply that to the trunk or get a spray on dampener and spray the trunk , should help alot

When I am pushing my system it knocks my mirror off and into my cup holders. Tightening the screw does nothing...I need to loctite the SOB. But yeah when my stereo is thumping I can't focus on objects in the rear view so I just use my side mirrors.
