I have been really lucky with my GTI. The only thing that rattles is the heat shield above the gas tank and my visors up front a bit. It's amazing what happens when you by a german vehicle over a japanese one. :p:

What does it have that would make it rattle though??
The GTI has the 2 W3's in it right now and will probably have a W7 or Alpine Type X within the month...

I have a camaro.. everyhitng rattles, squeaks, creaks, and makes noise. On my old V6 I went crazy with sound deadening. Doors, tailgate, floor.. all over the place and that car was very quiet. My Z28 now though I've not done anyhitng to quiet it down and I don't think I will!

Very nice... I have the 8 stock monsoon speakers with the 2 W3's powered by an MA-Audio 1200 watt amp. (Tuned waaay down LoL) I couldn't see rewiring the entire sound system to use another amp or speakers when these are crystal clear. I could really benefit from a new head unit though. If I do that I will probably rewire new speakers (Since the monsoon's are amped, and then individually amped) with my phoenix gold amp. (One of the amazing, slightly older, 4 channel, 300 watt amp. I love it...

It will be sealed. Since it is more of an SPL sub and I am a fan of clear sound I figured putting it in a nice sealed box will give me the best of both worlds. I think it will still be plenty loud enough at that. If for some reason I don't like that then I will make a nice tuned ported box... I will probably use baltic birch. (If I have the $$$. If not... MDF it is.)

Indeed. I am working on a deal with the W7 right now. If that doesn't go through I am going to look into an Alpine type X or a pair of W6's.

IMO for what yo uget they are a far better deal than JL. The type R is a fairly cheap sub and is just about on the same level as the W3... the Type X is right up there in between the W6 and W7 but when purchased new is a couple hundred cheaper. I LOVE my JL's and would like to never run anything else but them. Hopefully my wallet allows.

Nice Rusty, I am a DIY guy some of the time. More and more as I get older.+
The only thing that rattles in my VW is the front visors. If you flip them down they stop rattling.
