License plate is a big one, its loud as hell, try and secure it with all 4 screws if possible, your spoiler, im not so sure on an accord, i stuff felt underneath mine to stop it, but it still rattles with hard hits..

another thing is the underbody, ive seen this on some preludes, the actual under carriage itself rattles and i have no fuggin clue what you would do to fix that and im glad mine doesnt

maybe check the moldings on the side of your car, mine rattled when i first got my system but seem to have stopped on their own

ok me and my cuzen in stall them for kids at our school because there to rich to do it for them selfs. Is your box padded? if not do that. Also you might want to put a bar that gos right across the mid box... it looks cool and it helps so the box doent move.

Me and him where thinking about this and it could be some thing lose in the trunk ...Like a wireing box for your lights.. or wires that are taping the trunk. If not that Look under the back bumper make shur every thing is where it should be. If you have all that checked off for a yes every thing is fine.... I dont know What it could be

go to the hardware store, buy some cheap insulation and stuff the boxes with that. That's what we did with my friend's Civic.
