Front speaker rattle

[ThomasGray]

My front driver side speaker rattles on high volume and when the bass hits and I think it's either whatever is holding the speaker in place has come loose or whatever was holding it and place has broken, what do I do?

Replace both speakers, the stock speakers are made from paper so are never going to be the best. 16.5cm speakers fit then you just need to decide the quality you want, for a decent sound on the cheap my go to speaker at the min is the alpine type E costing £30.

If I was you I would save a whole lot of noise in the car and sound insulate the doors with some silent coat whilst you're at it, with 4 packs in my type r we reduced the db rating of road noise by 15 so it's well worth doing.

Also for your new speakers I like to fit them with a bead of silicone self adhesive tape makes the speaker and the door act as one preventing vibration between the speaker and the door.

And to my shock horror the first time I've done it, the baskets are made of plastic. Never ever seen such cheap nasty shite anywhere before or since.


Also, there are specific areas to ask such questions.

In the audio section mate.

Let's face it the audio section is dead, I don't even think there has been a post in there in the last 6 months.
