dyno mat, move subs to interior of car. Ford built the trunk bad so its gonna rattle just by its design flaws.

Yeah, the shaker 1000 rattles the crap out of my trunk. It seems to be another Ford "feature"...It's on my list of things to fix as well

Mine rattles the whole trunk as well, but I've gotten used to it for the most part. If anyone knows of a cheap fix though, let me know

Adding a lot, lot of weight by dynamat or the better cheaper alternative www.secondskinaudio.com 's damplifier. Pull out the plastic latch cover and get it to wedge fit fit somehow. Mostly just add as much weight as you can with the damplifier. And if there is any trunk adjustment make it tighter.

One of many reasons i deem subs unncessary in my mustang. I had them, i liked them. Better money spent elsewhere.

Dynomat or something like it is the answer.

+1. I have two 10's and the trunk rattles like those little $500 ricer mobiles where they spent more money on the stereo than the car.. I HATE it.. Buy a louder exhaust, and turn the radio up so you can't hear the rattle.
