Default New Member.. trunk rattles

Hey, I'm also a proud owner of a Camry. I have a 1995 Toyota Camry V6 LE. Stock accepet for the sound system upgrades.


I've installed a system in my car and the spoiler on the trunk rattles. Beside using Dyomat, is there anything else i could do? Also my bumper viberats too. Any suggesution would help.
Thanks!

the rattle is likely comming from the mounting points of the spoiler and not the spoiler itself.. so you might have to change those bolts that hold it down because overtime- all that bass comming from your system will knock ur entire trunk area loose. I suggest tightening loose bolts and for the bumper- are all the clips there?- if its not all there.. then grab some clips and fill those in.

I'm pretty sure its not coming from the bolt, because if you look at it, the whole spoiler is viberating. I hold down the spoiler and it stops. The bumper, that I'm not sure cause the weird thing is the driver side viberats only. The passenger side to be stationary. The trunk latch seem to be tight. Not really any visble movement is on the trunk itself accept for the bumper and spoiler.

The easiest way to do this is to put rubber washer on the nut and bolt side of the spoiler mounting points. Sort of like the ones you would find in a faucet.

This is a good idea too but it might make a small space between the car body & the spoiler ... about opening them .. well if its a matter of just bolts then i guess that will be easy.

take ur best shot & best of luck.

In addition to camry 313's suggestion when you take it off to do the rubber washers you could drill a small hole in the bottom side of it in a place you can't see and use a can of spray in foam insallation. I weights nothing but, might work
