I've got an my95. In the boot I'm running a Vibe 10inch dual bandpass ported box arrangement. It give a really good tight reponsive bass. Unfortunately it gives me 2 problems.

1. The rear view mirror shakes until I am looking at my back seat and requires adjustment every couple of minutes!!

2. The ceiling trim vibrates giving a really annoying resonating kind of sound!!

Has anyone got any tips to stop these as I think I might lose my fragile little mind

Before some funny person says just turn it down!! It happens even when I'm at about a third of full volume

Cheers

1 - glue it with hot glue seems to be about the only way

Also see the SIDC faq as there's a few tips in there.

2 - Strip it down, pack it down, refit...
