Yes, they are worth it.

You'd be amazed how much cleaner the bass sounds when your entire vehicle isn't rattling along with the bass lines.

It won't completely stop all of the rattles (there is a hell of a lot of pressure being exerted on your vehicle's panels), but will at the very least attenuate them.

Yeah, deadener is just added mass to lower the panels' resonant frequency to below levels of music, and thus eliminate resonating. This in turn can reduce rattles (when stuff isn't vibrating it won't be wacking into other stuff). To actually stop rattles just make sure there are any loose pieces of hard material that can hit into each other (weather stripping and expanding foam can do the trick).

Deadening is great for keeping sound inside your vehicle too. After deadening my truck I could crank the stereo with the windows up and outside the truck it sounded like a stock stereo. Deadening worked great for that aspect.

You dont have to tear apart the whole trunk...just the areas you want to deaden
