Please keep us posted. ThanksWith my "Alpine" set up I've narrowed the rattle down to the back wall. I ordered some Dynomat today, I'll be removing the sub enclosure and putting Dynomat on the back wall, I'm sure that'll cure the problem.
I have a laramie with the HK sound system and have noticed a few rattles (fix one and find another) so I've done some searching and found that if the rear window is cracked open about an inch or two the rattle goes away, so then i jumped in the back seat and started looking a bit closer. What i found was if you push against the top of the sliding window on the driver side the rattle goes away. I plan on putting some foam in the window channel.Has anyone pinpointed the source of the bass rattle? I have my bass setting at -3 and it still rattles on certain bass notes.
Wow! $400I went by the car stereo shop today and he took some felt adhesive and wedged it in the left side of the sliding window and it seemed to quit. Then we tried a different song and it came back but now from the the back panel. He made a comment that it sounds like there is a cable or something back there causing the noise. He said he would take it apart and dynamat the area and could resolve it for about 400. I am not excited about having to pay that so I may tackle it myself.

You can do it. Attached you'll find everything you might need to reference to feel more comfortable with taking on the project.
Exactly. Why should I have to tear it apart or pay someone else to do it, to make sure it doesn't rattle. I would have no problem doing this, if I put in aftermarket speakers.I have some serious bass rattling in the rear of the truck with certain hard hitting bass music (HK stereo). Disappointing considering the price of the vehicle. You'd think the morons who designed it would have extensively tested how well things were dampened. The balance of the system is pretty **** too in my opinion... seems heavily biased towards the front, and lacking in treble.
Is it awful? No, but I do notice these things vs other vehicles I've had, which is why it's annoying me.
Nice work @sticker500 and good pic, I love bass and will remember that. I wonder what’s the fastest way to advise Ram so they can secure that little spot for all the future owners (and for service departments for when they get the old “it makes some funny noises, sometimes, somewhere back there...)?I have narrowed down the rattle and eliminated it totally except for the rear doors. I am going to take the rear doors apart and add some dynamat or equivalent.
Attached is the picture of where the issues were, so I took some thin double sided foam tape and used my plastic tools to shove it between sliding window and frame where the arrows are. I think some felt tape would be better and would allow the window to continue to function. I wished I had a solid window anyhow, never would use the slider. I hope this helps some folks out.

I have rattle from loose twitter grill in driver's door. @I Love Grits could you please share guides for removing door trims as well?
