Default What can I do about the rattles?

I still have the stock Bose system, and for now plan to keep it a while. I have looked into upgrading, but I don't want to lose my 12 disc changer.....so, I how do I get rid of the rattles in my door panels. The passenger side is the worst! The grill screen rattles, and sounds like the speaker is blown. I stuck a penny in between the grill and door panel and it stopped! But, I don't want a penny just chillin....anyone have better ideas for a shim? or to get rid of the rattle??? THANKS!!

Sound deadening will help get rid of rattles and make the speakers sound better.

some mention on the forum suggested super glueing the bose emblem in place on the screen mesh.

I removed my screens and put them back in. I now have rattles as well. I am going to pull the screens back out and use black silicone glue to hold them in place and kill off vibration.
