Question how can i solve my hatch rattle from my subs?

hi i have a 97 blazer and have been working on a system but have ran into an annoying problem that im not sure how to fix....the hatch window rattles HORRIBLY ...the only way i have found to make it stop is have two guys lean on the glass at the corners and it works...but ...none of my buddys can run that fast so i need a way to secure that window better or just seal it somehow as i dont use it anyway....if you have any ideas to solve this problem...or its just the way it is ...please tell lol
thanks

Somewhere on the forum I read about a guy using standard home window weatherstripping on the glass to make the seal tighter when latched down. Seemed to fix his problem, I haven't tried it myself because mine hasn't started rattling yet.

Never thought about using the stuff to fix interior panel rattles. I bet it would work. When I had my Ford Focus I used sticky tack to fix the rattles in my license plate, just ball it up and stab the screw through it. I also used it to fix my shaky rear view mirror. That stuff works like a charm absorbing rattles. I love cheap home remedies for these things, beats the hell out of the high cost of dynamat.

it works well and it defently help if you have stock or aftermarket speakers......I have a pioneer head unit stock speakers and two boss tens in a big hooker box....yes the brand of the box is hooker haha..... but it sounds good and of corse every one likes loud music so you put the stuff around the doors.....you could literally put anything between the panels and the metal doors

Turn the radio down. I don't want to hear it a 1/4 mile away. this will help with the window rattle.

You mean the weatherstripping?
