I just finished putting sound deadening in my front doors, but now my rearview mirror is rattling a lot more than before. Is this something others have experienced? Any tips to fix it?
Yeah, that happens. You could try adding some sound deadening material to the back of the mirror, but honestly, it’s usually not worth the trouble. I ended up just gluing my mirror in place.

This is just part of the tradeoff for better sound. Gotta pick your battles.
Can you share a picture of the work you’ve done? I’ve been wanting to do this but I’m not sure what the most effective approach is.
That rattling is actually a good sign. It means more sound energy is staying in the car and causing the flex. Your setup is doing its job.
