my problem

[Crazybird]

i figured out the sources of my rattles my liscence pl8 which i will soon fix and my rear taillight in the window....

it rattles like hell making the bass cound like poo how can i fix it?

[shepherd79]

take them out and use somekind dampering material.

[Crazybird]

lol that helps :S u know im talking about the plastic part hittin the window right?

my car does the same thing. i want to get the 3rd brake light to stop all together. i mean i can move it some and it will quite for a while but starts rattling again. as for the license plate, i put some 3M double sided tape to insulate the plate from the backing it sits on. there's also some noise comming from where the plate mount in the rear of the trunk is bolted to the metal trunk lid. and the flap thing thats on the left side of the trunk, comes out under the bumper, makes noise.

ya i just moved my rear tailight closer for now

and i "gently" lol moved the brakets closer to the window so it shouldnt be moving anytime soon

as for the liscence pl8 i tryed putting more washers it seems to reduce the noise a bit but i still need sumthing else cause it still annoys me.

but for now im happy since theres no rattle in the cab.... other then my dash every now and then lol i gotta figure that out

so problem solved for now

did u try the foam thing i told you also the reason it makes noise is cause it flexes , u can also try the foam weather striping on it do a boarder then make a cross it should stop then, u can also use the faom/felt strips on the 3rd brake light so it sits on the window but the foam/fely only hit the window

[Crazybird]

me and my dad were thinkin of using silicon for the rear light

and ya im gonna try the foam strip thing i just have to get sum foam can i get it at walllmart??

its also been pretty wet out thats why i dont want to use foam because im afraid of

[MessyHonda]

i heard that the 86-87 car had a gasket on the rear window and the tail light...im not sure since both my cars are 88-89

[Crazybird]

i dont have a gasket i wish there was sum kind of rubber there

[conozo]

i have seen a post on here where someone found one with a gasket around the light, i dont know where or what type it was.

But for my rattle i cut a thin strip off my old wiper blades and glued it to the light. Has never rattled since. You could just put one strip on the top and bottom or the sides.

[Crazybird]

oo good idea i wonder if i still have my old blades ill check in the morning
