dynamated the whole trunk + rear deck, all rattles are fixed exept for the trunk vents. the screen flaps are really annoying. im thinking of taking it off and fill the hole with dynamat so no debris can get in. yay or nay?

Had the same problem with a Durango.

I figured there were two choices,
remove them or accept it - can't hear it from inside

Maybe try a small piece of Dynamat on the flap and some thin (1/8" think) weatherstripping from Lowes around the metal side of the car? That was the third option I had, but then again I couldn't hear it inside and judges din't knock off points for it.

Trunk flaps?

Trunk flaps?

typically behind the rear lights. They are there so when the last door is closed and all the windows are up, the door will shut. Also allows outside air to come in when the windows are up too.

Oh those. Stuff a sponge in them.

thats what im leaning on. i cant hear it from the inside but outside, its really crappy. the rear seats wall has enough holes to let the air through when i shut the trunk. plus the stock subs are off.

good one. im afraid if it falls off, im going to have to take the rear bumper off again.

I thought you could get to those from inside the trunk?

you can access it from inside the truck, but the vent itself pops out towards the bumper.
