Rattling Door Panels
Does anyone have any good tips to stop my door panels from vibrating? I have Alpine type S front speakers and my door panel rattles a lot. I have all the clips on the back of it and two pieces of foam in between the panel and the piece it mounts onto.
figure out what exactly is rattling.
is the whole door panel rattling on the door?
if so, your clips might be old and weak, thus not holding the panel to the door as tightly as new ones would. you can get new ones on ebay for cheap.
i think they're called trim clips, or panel clips, or something

Yes it is the whole door panel on both sides. If you push against it, the rattling stops. Ya maybe I need new clips, my panel was missing a few so I got them off a civic at the autowreckers. Ill try it!
Keep the suggestions coming if you have an idea, no one likes rattling door panels!

You could also line the door panels with some type of sound barrier material.. I can't remember the damn name right now, but this eliminates some of the excess noice caused by the door being an open space. But it does sound like clips need to be the first thing.
i got no idea for ya... if all your screws and clips are installed. ive had lots of bass in my civics and never had any rattling on the door panels... only the junk i had sitting in the pockets have ever rattled to me.
