Anything soft between the surfaces will do, like old blankets cut up to the right size, old towels, foam, mate anything will do the job. Don't know what you can do for the roof. I know you can bring it down but i've never done it on a TS...

You should get some extra dark tint for your wagon if its white. Would look ballistic.

Sound deadening is your only solution.

My previous car (a 1990 Ford Falcon S.... yes... please don't laugh :P) had terrible rattles when i first installed my sub and amp. (doesn't help that im running a $700 Kicker Solobaric sub either but oh well :P).
My solution was to spent a good $300 on sound deadening which almost removed all vibrations.... except my rear view mirror :(

One word of caution on sound deadening, however. If you buy one sheet of awesome $90 stuff... and 3 sheets of $30 crappy stuff... the $90 stuff will ALWAYS work better... ALWAYS!
