Air leaking into trunk


Recommended Posts

not sure if this goes here but.. A few days ago i tested my system with the trunk open and yes it got way louder well today i spent about 2 hours foaming off around the false floor and wall and yet I'm still getting tons of air in the trunk I'm clueless as to where it could be going in at this is a cobalt I'm beating out of the backseat if anyone knows the designs on these cars or how i could track down how the airs getting back there would be very helpful at this point pics below id like to finish maken the backseat nicer and cleaner but not until i fix this problem

Maybe have some kinda colored smoke or something silly like red smoke and just throw whatever it is in the trunk, "seal it up" and toss on some bass.. hopefully whatever it is is orderless or something along those lines. Even white smoke would work you just need enough to completely fill a trunk after you seal it.

Quality is all in how you take pictures ;) I have plenty of projects that look WAY better on camera then in person :D

crazy to fit so many in so little. Reminds me of some of the porns I've seen?

that could work, drop a flood light in the trunk ad close it, then go up front and check, or vice versa with trunk open. and a night of course. :P

i found the problem it was part of the trunk deck that i thought was closed off by the frame i was wrong it goes the whole way into the trunk sealed it off sounds way better! i'm still trying the flash light thing just to make sure its all good
