what should I put here to seal off the trunk?

[M@nJo 10+ year member]

The 2 high lighted boxes is an inside shot from the back seat to the trunk lid closed. The 2 gaps are room that reach into the license plate lights on the exterior and other misc. lighting wiring (IE: 3rd brake light). I wanted to cover it up with sound deadner but wanted to check in and see if it makes a difference? I still get trunk rattles from time to time and I believe this may be part of the issue. I have double layers on the lid and single layer on the floor/sides.

I don't see why the deadener wouldn't work...

Maybe use some Luxury Liner Pro to fill it in, then use the deadener...just a thought...

If i cover it up, i wont be able to replace my trunk, license plate, 3rd brake lights. ironically, one of them blew.

cover some sheet metel or 1/2" MDF with deadener and then screw it down to cover the holes. That way you can remove it when the time comes...

this... and use some weather stripping on the inside edges of the mdf to make sure its sealed tight. if you didnt need those holes for somthing i would say some expandable foam. it worked great on my car.

Yeah, any big voids you need to fill (that you don't need access to) just buy a can of Great Stuff Expanding foam...shit is awesome, filled my entire trunk lid with it, works great.
