I'm getting some cab vibration from my subwoofers. The worst offender seems to be the overhead storage bins. Anybody got any ideas for a fix? Maybe some kind of rubber gasket applied inside the compartments? I have some thoughts but figured I'd ask if anyone has any interesting approaches to this problem.

Super glue. :wink: Just kidding.
Don't know. I would probably try some rubber strip or foam strip.

Maybe dynamat the floor of the cab. Big job but it might cut down on the overall cab resonance and absorb some of the impact. What sub setup do you have? (power & driver size)

I've got two 10s running at about 150 Watts each.
You might want to take it to the dealer when I bought my 05 they told me about that problem so maybe they have a fix for it.

Okay, quick and easy fix. I examined the larger overhead bin doors, and there are these rubber plugs against the top that are supposed to contact the door when its closed and stop vibrations. They are just a little undersized to compensate for serious vibration.
My solution: I colored the end of the plugs with a Sharpie marker and closed the door to mark where the plug contacts the door. Then, on the marked part of the door I placed one of those small clear stick on rubber feet. (Found at any hardware store) Now when you push the door closed, the rubber feet push against the factory plugs and that pretty much eliminates the vibrations.
