I know the rear view mirror rattles from that plastic base pieces, but i have fixed that.

I have the same problem as everyone else with bass. when the bass hits, the mirror itself rattles. i was wondering if anyone has a fix for this besides putting elastic bands around the mirror.

i was thinking of sealing up the "cracks" of the mirror housing with black silicone. any other suggestions?

 

I cracked the mirror housing open, put some deadening in there and I found that the buttons rattle, so I put '*****' of sound deadening material (pulled off the foil backing) on each button. I put the housing back together, pushed each button a couple times to set the material and now no more rattles and all the buttons still work.

 

^damn. looks like i gotta do that this weekend.

 

If you want, I'll try to take pics this weekend if you need a visual.

 

Can you say DYNAMAT!!!

 

Unfortunately I don't know too many people that can see through sound deadening so it can't be applied to the windshield.

 

 

yeah dude that will be a plus. thanks

 

+1 on posting up pics. I have the same problem. subscribing for the pics...

 

Will do. I'm not feeling great (cold or flu or something), I may go home early. If I do I'll get some pics up while I'm home doing nothing. If not, I'll try to get some pics Saturday.

Easy process, but hard to visualize, especially if you've never had the mirror open.

 

Never had the mirror open. Very interesting though. I can't wait to get rid of the rattling mirror!! LoL

 

yeah dude if you take pics and post steps, you should sticky it. i'm sure it iwll come in handy for everyone.

 

yea definitely interested
