Door rattle. How to fix?
I done few audio upgrades to my shaker 500. It sounds great other than the door rattle because of the increase in bass.
Upgrade include
Kenwood DNX6990
Rainbow SLC 5.25
Shelby kicker door subs.
I was wondering if there anything that can be done to minimize rattle. The sound seems to be coming from the plastic on the door pockets. I am also wonder how people mounted there 5.25 speakers. I used the metra bracket but I didn't cut the tabs so it not it flush. I thinking that this might be part of the problem too. Would dynamat help?

Yes, sound deadening will make quite a big difference. Put it on everything you can, even the little peices. Those tend to be the ones that rattle the most.
I used the metra adapter pate for a 5.25 and mine fit just fine.
put tweeters in the door above the handle
they also make kick panels for our cars

Also the plastic piece behind the interior door handle will rattle like a mother. You can put some 2 sided tape on it. The more you take the piece off the worse the rattle gets.
