newbie question

[Go Dawgs!]

OK. I just got a punch 360 and 2 JL 10"s in a box installed and my question is- What is the best way to stop everything in and on the car from ratteling? I thought about getting some of that expandable foam but I don't want to mess things up.

That expandable foam isn't always the best way to go. If you don't use it right it can expand and put dents (outwards) in your car. To stop everything you need to systematically go around your car treating each area until the noise is reduced. Sound damping is also an option but many times it is plastic on plastic that is making the noise and the troubled spot needs to be padded, not sound damped.

If you are interested in sound damping the car do a search for "sound damping" or "dynamat" or by my SN in this section. I have posted in a few threads my install with pictures.
