I currently have my driver's door panel off. No sense reassembling it until I get the new power window control later this week. This gave me the opportunity to find the source of an annoying buzz that I have heard inside the door for YEARS. It is worse when it's hot outside, better when it's cool. Got me so far? Lots of old cars have temperature dependent noises, I suppose. I believe that the source of this noise, which is obviously louder with the door panel off, is the gray plastic covered assembly in the photo below. It states emphatically on the cover "CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE." I have a feeling that the retractor spring might be inside. Have any of you removed this device? I am feeling like the only way I can pad, cushion, or tighten whatever inside is buzzing is to remove the thing. I just don't want to wreck my perfectly functional seatbelt or injure myself.
