I currenlty have a Rockford T212D4 (2000 watt Peak) in my A4. When I'm standing outside my car and just showing off my system my license plate rattles and is really annoying, any ideas how to fix this problem?

I made sure that all the screws are tight but it stills persists to rattle.

Any Ideas??

The right way to do it is to Dynamat your trunk. It's a little expensive but it makes it sound great. If you want a cheap fix, you can get 3m double sided tape and stick two small pieces on the back of the plate and press it against the trunk. If it leaves marks, it doesn't matter because you never see them. That's what I did on top of the dynamat when I was into sound.

I looked up Dynamat on ebay and the prices were a litte expensive. Would you reccomend the Dynamat, Does it really sound that much better???

I've been using "Fatmat" in all my installs for many years, just as good as Dynamat imo, just much cheaper... Ebay - tons of it...

D

Thanks for the Advice

I'll be sure to check out "Fatmat"

Try the double sided tape. You won't be dissapointed.

I think I will try the Tape first before i spend the money on Fatmat

Thanks for advice

if anything, theirs a kit made by dynamat specifically for the license plate, i think it runs about $30 or so, you should be able to pick it up at any audio place or even best buy if you have any around you.

something soft behind the plates and screw it tight..

true.... i forgot, i used cardboard, but now it like is permanently stuck to my plate after i got it wet from washing the car. plus it didn't work out for to long.:(

When i had subs in my old car, i had the same issue. I found that using electrical tape did wonders. I basically taped electrical tape around the boarder of the plate, which was then hidden by the plate frame. Tape held for over 2 years w/o any issue, and i had no more rattle.

I cut a mousepad to fit behind the plate and no more rattle ;)

Lol some of you guys are pretty innovative. Also I saw the license plate dynomat at car toys for $9. The best deal i've ever seen at a car toys lol.

yea go with jaxters idea, metra makes the license plate piece of dynamat for 8-15$ depending on where u get it.

Fatmat FTW. Also Brown Bread (B-quiet) is good too. Just apply to the back of the plate and trim with a utility knife. I use it on all my vehicles even if they don't have systems.

i have always used 3m double sided foam tape ($2) on the four corners of the plate with no problems what so ever.

I had 2 10 W7's in my A6 and I took the license assembly apart from the trunk side, used 2 layers of dynamat between the plate and through bolted the whole thing together using small carrage bolts. It looks tight and has never rattled since. As an added benefit no one will ever be able to steal my license plate!!!!!!!
