arent they a bitch the solex boot locks to fit properly.

I got 2 JL 12's and they make a fair few rattles. Most of the bootlid detached itself from the frame, so I got a tube of expanding foam and chucked through it.....bad idea tho coz now it looks really messy LOL!! Also the badge on my boot got worked loose and chipped the paint around it. And also oneday when I put my bootlid back on (took it off to get some rust fixed), it was a little more to the right then it should of been.....as soon as I cranked the JL's for a while I realised the side of the boot came in contact with the panel and chipped some paint.....grrrr......I wish I put a clear on now lol :P I think the only major rattle I have now from the stereo is the boot rattling, but stops when pressure is put onto it....so I might try wat was mentioned above about moving that bit down that the latch latches to.

the bootlid from wat frame? frame? huh

support frame that the skin is glued to

a question for some who may kno... i put some raggs in the bootlid to stop the boot lock from ratlling and filled all the frame up with old rags.. now the boot lids heavier and the boot keeps falling... is there a way to fix this? or should i ditch the rags and seal the frame up? and wat do i do about the lock?

The rattling I was experiencing was mainly parcel shelf and slightly boot. There were already holes in the parcel shelf where I put long screws in which the bottom of the screws poke out in the boot.

u could also change the position of ur subs to reduce boot rattle, i had boot rattle bad with my sub sitting in the middle facing back, turn it around and sat the front of the box on the step and it was much better after that. btw with my box the sub was already facing back , kinda sitting 45 degrees from vertical with the box flat. A also sprayed the whole boot floor, back and sides with a cna of underbody vibration dampener (sold at autobarn), i used the whole can, and sure the car stunk for a good 3 weeks after but it stooped all those little rattles from the bumper trim and licence plate and all that. I've also found to reduce parcel shelf rattle (and it'll also giv u more bass) if u make a couple ports in ur parcel shelf, str8 thru the metal underneath also, i put 2 5" ports in, worked a treat! btw gr8 guide, i jst thought i should give a couple more cheap ways 2 help out
