So the inside plastic on my front doors rattle when the bass hits. I have stock speakers and stock head unit. My listening set up is Bass 3, Treb 5, Loud Mid, SPL Feel, and xB setting...

I plan on upgrading the speakers and am wondering if eDead will stop the plastic from vibrating so much or what?

edead will do the trick just fine. be sure to put some right around the door handle. i had buzzing there and it pretty much eliminated it. just take your time and use more than 1 layer. you won't regret it.

Duct tape and a glue gun can fix anything!

lay it on both the actual door panel and the metal where it connects to. more work and kind of a hassle but absolutely worth it in the end.

I put 4 coats of edead v3 liquid on the inside of the door, with a layer of edead v1 over that, 2 coats of v3 on the door structure with a layer of v1se over it and all holes sealed, and pieces of v1 on the actual plastic panel in strategic locations and my doors are solid, knock on them and they sound like solid wood instead of tin cans

I had the same issue. I did a layer of Dead Skin on my actual doors. Then I cut it into strips and did it all over the actual panel also. Made a world of difference for sure.

Either www.yahoo.com or www.google.com. Great search engines. You just type in what you're searching for, and *BAM!* you get results and even more links!

Hope this helps!


*edit*
Just to help you out, I performed a quick search in which it yielded this result: eDead.
Unfortunately, it doesn't come in a Hello Kitty pattern, but that's okay cause you won't see it.
