Add a subwoofer.....gain rear deck rattle!

Why does my rear deck rattle so much with my one 12"? I've tried dampening it but it's all the plastic junk for the child seat holder and seat belts. Anyone have luck deadening their sound?

And why the hell am I a lurker?

I took my max in and they put the rubber thing around my stock sub and they also tightned some of the rods in the back and put some rubber stuff around them too. Fixed.

The rattle that I encountered was coming from the base (or bottom) of the rear window, and the rear deck lid and my rear break light. The light started to chip at the rear window, and the egde of the deck lid would bounce up and down against the window. I applied a weather sealer that is sticky on one side and foam on the other along the edge of the deck lid and between the 3rd brake light and the glass, and it went away... But it is between the decklid and the glass, not under the deck lid.
