stereo in 190E=rattle?

How much will my 86' 190E rattle with no sound deadening? lol.
Bout to get it all (sub and amp) in and i expect the car to pretty well fall to pieces. [:D]

Can anyone give me a rough indication on how badly it rattles in the ass end, and wat bout the roof?
Ive also got the spoiler to worry about [:(]

The least "Mercedes" part of the W201 is the trunk. The lid, with no covering, is pretty tinny. The rear tail light assembly is also "noisy." You should have little to no problems inside the cabin.

thats right, the side panels in the trunk can rattle too.
i have no problems with the taillights, its always possible to fasten the screws a little more

I deadened the trunk lid rattle by putting a double layer of Tsunami foil lining on it, and sound spraying around/in the openings. It worked for me w/2 MTX 12" 800w subs pointing up at the trunk lid, so it should work A-OK for you. [:)]

when i first got my subs, the loudest rattling came from the back liscence plate, so i just stuck a bunch of felt sticker things (the kind you put on the bottom of your furniture so it doesnt scratch the floor) on the back side of it and it worked fine (i wasnt about to pay 30 bucks for a dynomat liscence plate kit)[:D]

My main concern is the spoiler [:D]

My boot flexes too.. will get around to buying some sound deadener one day.
