do you have 2 screws or 4 in there? well either way. take out the two bottom screws if you have them, go down to popular surplus and get some one inch thick foam. cut out two little pieces and stuff it under your license plate at the bottom. whala.


now the real way to do it is to dynamat your truck, your system will sound so much cleaner and deeper, but its expensive.

you can go with his method with dynamat or you can use it in combination with a liquid spray that deadeans sound and prevents rattle. You can get it from almost anywhere. I bought mine at NAPA and it works great. You can also use it in your trunk and on your trunk lid. You can use it almost anywhere in your car just be careful.

WHAT I DID WAS SOEMTHING SIMILAR TO LIGHTSHOW'S RESPONSE I REMOVED THE TWO BOTTOM SCREWS AND I STUFFED "WEATHERALL" A FOAMY SUBSTANCE FOUND AT HOME DEPOT FOR ABOUT 1.99 IN BETWEEN MY LISCENSE PLATE AND THE FRAM AND THE BETWEEN TEH CAR AND THE LICENSE PLATE. iTS CHEAP AND IT GETS THE JOB DONE.

YOUR TRUNK WILL RATTLE NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO UNLESS YOU GET DYNAMAT..WHICH IS ABOUT $100-$200..

You dont have to spend a lot on dynamat. You can buy a custom wedge pack for 35.00 retail or check on ebay cause they been having deals on dynamat. Lightshows idea is also a good one thats cheap. Let us know how u do.
