How to keep back glass in a Blazer from rattling?

I have a '95 Blazer with a 15" L7 in a ported box. The L7 slams pretty hard, but it rattles the crap out of my back glass. I first thought it was the tailgate, but whenever I pop the backglass the bass sounds very clear. When the backglass is closed like normal, it rattles A LOT.. You almost actually hear more rattling than the bass on the outside.. I can hear the rattling a fair amount on the inside also. I have no idea what to do, considering as how you cant deaden the glass.. ANy ideas?

Put some weather stripping/sound deadening on the edge of the glass so that it doesn't rattle but still has enough space for the clasp to grab it. My friend cut-up some material and attached it to the edge of the glass. He would have to put some effort into closing the hatch but it didn't rattle, thats forsure.

Idd just put some rattle pad or a few layers of sound deadening with some foam on it.

If you compete, you may want to leave it.

Sometimes from stopping the movement, the scores go down.

Thats how it is in my teamates car.

So just buy plain weather stripping from AutoZone or something? How do you put the stripping on? I really have no idea..
