And BDR427 and I can tell you (our cars are close together) that the box of rocks gets worse over time. Over the winter I may take a chop saw to the sidepipes and repack them. It's embarrassing to decelerate and listen ot that rattling.

Alternatively you can gut them but your ears will suffer. Drilling and tapping screws will do nothing to stabilize the packing of the mufflers.
