Default Bag Rattle Redux?

I have the Hog Tunes speaker lids on my 09 Ultra... How do I reduce the amount of rattle when the speakers are hitting the lows (bass)?

Try installing dynomat between your lids and speakers I did it and have no problems. You can get it on line or at your local audio store.

Dam it man! What 6 X 9's are you running? lol My bags have carpet lining and they don't rattlle with two sets of Pioneers back there and I have the old style TS-D901 Revs that go down to 22 hz. with awesome bass! I think GP told me a long time ago that you can adjust the latches where they close tighter and that will help. So far I have not had to do that.

I'm running the 6x9's that came with the setup and a PBR300x4 and it's only turned up to like 5. The next thing I was going to look at was tightening the latches...

I was just looking at my latches trying to compare to your picture... but can't quite determine what "these" are?

Thank you for the assistance
