Rear speaker panel squeak

FerRrari · 01-20-2011, 04:01 PM

Hey guys,

I'm starting to get really annoyed by the rear speaker panel squeaking, I've pulled my seat forward to make sure it doesn't touch the panel, yet whenever I take a curve with some inclination the noise comes up. Anyone got any tips to prevent this? I'd also like to be able to move my seat back a bit more since I'm 6'1"

Also, anyone have a squeaky A pillar? Tips to take care of that would also be appreciated.

Thanks

After having my rear speakers replaced twice, I learned to try pushing on the rear speaker cover in case one of the clips may have loosened.

I used non-hardening silicone sealant (clear) and made a small bead around the inside where the speaker grill mounts. Doesn't make any noise anymore and it isn't permanent or visible.
