rattling speakers

[fiercecivic]

OK i just installed my new door speakers, and when i add any little bit o bass the grills start rattling I was gonna stick sum foam on the grill but i wanted to get opinions on it b4 i glued foam to my grills.thnx

is the the plastic or just the rattling on the metal frame of the door?

mine was on the frame because i dont see how the plastic piece can vibrtate cause its fastened down pretty good!...

i just got a buddy to hold the speaker on the door then just get a drill with like a 1/8" piece and drill a hole...then just put an extra screw through there and problem solved, i even had 2 screws in there but the thing still rattled like crazy until i put in 3...

make sure its the metal on metal and not the plastic piece

i dont have a clue what ur tlking bout. frame? im pretty sure its the plastic cause i already stuck sum two sided take on the tweeter part of the spaker to get it from hitting the grill directly, that helped quite a bit until i give it sum good bass. so im perty sure its the grill.

yea i uh... got the same prob.... but its only the driverside cuz my grill wont go on all the way, i'm just gonna live with it, the bass drowns it out haha but i think u should check ur grills to make sure there on 100% and make sure those screws r in it. also check and make sure ur screws holding the actual speaker on havent come loose

i think hes talking about the plastic piece that the stock speakers were in....i had to take mine off and just use the aftermarket speaker itself because it wouldent fit and i need to drill another hole like tbk did cuz its only held on by 2 right now and the fronts rattle like a bitch but the backs are nice and clean sounding...even the bass

take out the factory plastic speaker baffle. Trace it out on a piece of 1/2" MDF. Cut it out and use it instead of the factory plastic baffle. It will allow your speakers to mount deeper and not hit the factory grill.
