Rattle after sub installed in trunk

Added a sub to my trunk. Sounds great. HOWEVER.... much rattle coming from the rear. Any advice on what needs secured?

Probably the rear LATCH covers for the child seat restraints. I put some felt tape inside mine and they stopped.

I'm no professional... But it's a solid install and sounds amazing. Just not show worthy for sure.

when I need the space, the big box comes out in under 1min easily thanks to the speaker plugs. Had this same setup in my old 335i for years. The TechnicPNP harnesses are awesome. No cutting!

Did you code off ASD prior to installing the sub and if so did you notice better bass quality with the ASD off?
