Default vibrating door cards, on kicks and basses.

does everyone else have this problem ? Its so annoying. I have dynamat on the doors so the metal is ok. Its Definately the actual cards rattling on certain frequencies. Its Resonating my brain let alone the car lol.

Get some stronger door card clips mate or some of the Nissan clips with the rubber washer on them. You can also get some rubber edging that you can put around the edge of the card to stop the plastic on metal vibration.

Something like this. Edge trim All around the door card stops vibration and still looks pretty neat. I would get the 3mm one if you can find it though.

As above the other suggestion would be to do away with the doorcards & use the carbon fibre door inserts(like on track cars)

Try the clips but this is just an idea not sure if it would work but maybe if you made some pods for the speakers may take some vibration away from being directly in the door

Try them for that price they are worth a try. I have only ever used the Nissan clips so can't say for sure but I cant see why they wont work.

Sound deadening is always a good investment if its done well using good materials such as dynamat even if its just to kill a little road noise.
