    does anyone else have the problem of the latch on your trunk vibrating while you drive, and making a high pitch scrath, your ears off, squeking sound?

    i think it may be caused form either the dent on top of my trunk or my sub hitting the trunk lid from the inside. right now i wedged a towel between the latch and the outer skin of the lid.

    HELP!!!

    no the striker on the car itself, thats what the latch latches to, move it down a little bit, it will tighten it up
