i need help with my rear deck


*note i have a 2002 LE not a 2008. couldnt find a picture of mine :[*
but where the arrows are is the problem. those side panels rattle where they meet the rear deck. the rear deck moves up and down and the third brake light moves up from the rear deck. i know about dynamat but i was wondering if i could maybe screw the rear deck down and the panels or something?

My previous '93 camry and now my '03 camry had the same problem. Simple solution would be to cut small (1/2" by 1/2") pieces of 3M double sided tape and stack them and then wedge small pieces between the plastic moulding and the rear windshield to cushion the rattling. Works great and you might want to remove the rear license plate frame and add double sided tape behind the rear license plate if that rattles too. GL

I have dyanmat lining the superior region of the trunk on the metal that supports the speakers, I really didn't think it made THAT much of a difference but I did it anyways hah. I'm pounding 3 10" JLs with minimal rattling in the hardest hitting songs at the highest volumes. Otherwise the acoustics in my '03 is pretty solid.
