Rear Deck Rattle

Had my C300 for a about 6-7 months now. my rear deck rattles like crazy! I thought it had to do with the baby harness but I'm finding it's coming from the speaker mesh area. Anyone experiencing this? Have you had to take the rear panel off to dynamat it? I heard people shoving some foam up from the trunk but when I went to check, it was pretty solid under one of holes.. maybe I'm missing something you guys already know?

i have the same problem with my C350. it rattled bad with the stock sub. now i added a 12" JL sub and it rattles very bad now. i looked at it from the trunk and to me it looks like there is lots of foam up there. i was thinking of maybe dynamating it. i would not like to have to do this. so if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix it that would be great.

i tried taking off the top panel in the trunk to try and get up under there and see what i could find, and wow that thing is on there good. to start with i could not even get the screws out. i will try again soon and see what i can find.

my problem was solved by shoving sponge up and by squeezing past what they so call insulation to the rear deck.

i had a loose nut underneath the housing that holds the speakers in the back window, climb in trunk on ur back and inspect the nuts, but mind u they have star heads on them, so u will need a star head wrench/socket to tighten them.
