Considering you have a nice carpenter at your disposal, I'd make a 'U' shaped ring of 1/2" MDF, and screw it down tight behind the stoplight, just enclosing the stoplight between the ring and the glass. That should stop it from vibrating.
Or you can use just some rubber beading between the stoplight and the rear-parcel tray, and tighten the existing screws. |
I think the second option might be more successful.Getting mdf btween te glass and the stoplight adds another part which can vibrate.Rubber beading in context wont cause that poblem.

I had some of this lead tape lying around. I stuck strips of the lead tape to the plastic box and that increased the mass of the box. the increased mass moved it's resonance freq. lower and out of the ciritcal midrange. |
Sir,where can i get this "lead tape".This in essence is another way of damping..am i right??

Since you like metal & double bass drumming, listen to 'Dyres Eve' (Metallica- not much variation but fast double bass drumming as the backbone) also intro to 'Painkiller' (Judas Priest) |
You are welcome to listen to it anytime though i dont know how it will stack up against the power of your genesis

will be at 'driven' this saturday so you are most welcome to drop in!!i really want to check out your cedia!
Yup,metallica has good double bass.even "the one" has a good startup where there are big barrell gunshots going off...actually seems like a double bass effect and the thump is amazing.
painkiller is a really good song....
which all metal bands do you listen to?
