Yeah Blutac works if you have too much money, or if you're still at school you could flog it from behind all the posters on the walls  ::)

before i loaded my bootlid with silicone I stuck bits of folded cardboard everywhere to see if it would stop the rattling. Clearly it did so i proceeded to empty a tube of silicone in there. If you want to stop the rattling the ghetto way then skip the silicone step.

Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

to be fair, it wouldn't be ANTRX if we stayed on topic.

and if someone wasn't cranky at Chr1s for something he said...

you need to strategically place the cardboard bits, where all the original broken away bits were. either way just load all the gaps in the bootlid up with silicone and you will have no more noise.

I dont mean like completely fill it, just put enough to reduce the gap between the skin and the frame.

I used to be able to hear my boot lid rattling from inside the car, but since I've squirted some silicone between the frame and the skin it's stopped rattling. Now I just get a bit of resonance with kick drum beats, they all seem to blend into one another because the boot lid is still vibrating. I need to sound deaden it.

The best engine in the world is the vagina, it takes any size piston, its self lubricating, starts with 1 finger, and every 4 weeks does its own oil change. It's just a pity the management system is so f**king temperamental.

i works brilliant, its the cheapset, most effective form of sound deadening for filling gaps, who cares if its unsightly? if it does the job...
