Please god tell me those massive woofers are sitting in the metal partition between the rear seats and the boot, and that u've fucked the useless rear seats off altogether and instead have the beautiful pounding cones naked and visible.

If this is the case, then sir, I am in love with you.

sorry to say the rear seats are still in, i cant garage this baby and thus covering my pride is paramount to not getting my stez knocked. But then again im sure displaying at auto showoff doesnt help the "look what ive got in my boot" factor. I cant win.

Now that this is finished its causing a snowball effect with mates saying when u gonna do this and when u gonna do that?

FTO = black hole i throw all my hard earns into, but isnt it fun ;)

The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.

I get them from the rear seatbelts and also the rear side panels inside. :(

I'd suggest doing the rear seat belts up. That takes care of them rattling.

Oh. But I think it's more the case of the metal clip part knocking onto the side panel, just from the vibration really.

Yes and if you do the belts up the metal clip will be in the middle of the car well away from the plastic side panel.
