#100719, "Hatch Rattle Fix =]"


          

Just thought i would share my issues and fix for my hatch rattle. It would rattle insanely with any bump at all. At first it sounds like the window and i tried placing styrofoam between the window and the hatch. Then we relized it was the hatch vibrating against the worn out seal. To fix it, go to your local hardware store and by a tube of that noodle looking stuff. It looks like the noodle thing you play with in a pool but its thinner, and cut 2 1 foot peices of it. Then just place them on the little seal and shut the hatch on it to hold them in place, then press the hatch closed and it will keep it from vibrating at all.
Let me know if this helped you. Ill post some pics of what im talking about sometime soon after i get home from work.

I wrapped my latch hook. Now the doors and interior panels rattle and make my system sound like shit unless you stand infront of the car from the outside.



I wonder what this guy is doing?
