Re: My rear deck rattles. How can I fix it?
Originally posted by Y2KevSE
I have found somewhat of a resolution to the BOSE unit rattling the rear deck (e.g. parcel).
I found the parcel to not be securely fastened to the frame, or the metal stuff underneath. I used velcro to further secure the parcel to the metal stuff to add more rigidness. There is a clip which holds the parcel down, but apparently it is not holding it down enough, and it causes vibration. In summary, the BOSE unit is shaking, causing the vibrations to eminate up through the securing clip onto the rear parcel, resulting in a "rattling" of the rear deck sound.
It should be noted the proper way to do this is to take out the rear parcel. For my application, the foam pads (see pics) just behind the BOSE unit were the ones vibrating the most. Others were as well, but those two in particular were the worst.
I plan on going back in and removing the rear parcel completely, and Velcro'ing all spacers.
The pics are here: http://www.fourthrock.com/maxima/mods.html under "BOSE..."
Note: Most of the rattle went away, but there is an ever so slight hint of it, most likely because I didn't not Velcro all spacers. This could have been attributed to the CD I was listening to as well. It is much better now.
