    If you do a quality job you won't have issues. If you want to stop panels from rattling try using insulation foam....you know the yellowish home insulation that expands as it hardens?

    dynAmat does work, with one caveat, it's got to be put on right.

    Its gonna be hard to get rid of the rattle. I put dynamat extreme on the trunk lid, license plate and inside the trunk where the license plate bulb is. rattle is minimal but that spot where the license plate bulb and the wiring is hard to apply a good amount of dynamat there. thats the spot where the rattle is hardest to remove. They have the spray on dynamat but i have no idea if thats any good.

    I wouldnt use Great Stuff on my car! That shit is a bitch to remove. Not to mention the yellow dust it produces once it dries. But then again, im no car expert. Maybe someone has tried this method before. And if they were successful, more power to them. 8)

    There is stuff that isn't. Just go to home depot or lowes and ask them.

    i agree. insulating foam is excellent for those crevices that you can't get your typical insulating mats into.

    I didnt wanna start a whole new thread so i thought i would post on this one.

    Well my awesome g/f of 6 yrs gave me an early anniversary present today. She bought me the dynamat trunk kit. Ive been reading your guys opinions on the material and ive decided to stick with it and give it a try. I was wondering if anyone has any pics of their install or where the key places would be to install it. My main focus right now is the trunk lid and rear deck. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Be very careful using the foam stuff. Being that the back trim piece is plastic you could break or crack it while the foam expains and hardens. I would actually take it off the car first and see where the rattle is coming from.
    Examples, plastic on plastic, a wire maybe hitting something, or just the trim piece being installed maybe causing a rattle against the trunk lid. If it is the trim against the trunk lid I would reccomend using a thin piece of rubber in between the lid and the trim. Kind of like the door handles have between the plastic handle and the metal door panel.
