the picture below shows where my rattle came from.

Have had 0 problems since, previously i had a pair of pants laying on the rear deck (dont ask i think i meant ot take them to the cleaners but forgot) and a shirt wedged in between the rear deck and the rear window to eliminate the rattle.


edit.



Thats where my rattle was coming from especially with an aftermarket exhaust.
Was this hard to remove? I am planning on doing this and don't have much skill. But this rattling is horrible and it needs to come off. Is their clips to watch out for? Anything to know? How hard was it too remove it? I will dynamat all this crap.

This is a great thread. My car is only 2 months old and my rear deck rattles like crazy. Can't wait to use these tips and fix it up!

I'm assuming you have to remove the rear seats and push them out of the back doors in order to do this huh? That seems like a lot of work... How many bolts is holding that rear seat in? Advice on the seat removal please..

I can't find "Automotive Carpet" anywhere... people don't even know what that is when i ask for it.. lol.
