[QUOTE="Chrix, post: 594256, member: 20930"] No one like my car :hmpf: :65:...anyway recently fixed my noisy driver side door cards; Firstly, get yourself a used tire tube from a motorcycle workshop. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_1.jpg[/IMG] They costs noting, so walk away if a greedy shop owner wants $ for it. Of all the clips on my driver side only 1 had the rubber ring around it, the rest were free to RATTLE ALL DAY.:107: [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_2.jpg[/IMG] This is a clip without the rubber ring. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_3.jpg[/IMG] What you want to do is cut a piece of the rubber tube, approx the size of a 20cent coin. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_4.jpg[/IMG] - Swiff army knife optional. Next cut a hole in the middle of the patch you just cut out. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_5.jpg[/IMG] - pink scissors increases accuracy. Size of the hole should be just a tid bit small than a 5cent coin. Dont bother using a paper hole puncher, its too small. While it wasn't directly apparent to me, the rubber ring would be inserted between the clip stand & the clip itself and not between the gutter on the clip. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_6.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_7.jpg[/IMG] Use something as leverage cuz its a biatch to get the rubber ring between the stand & the clip. Careful not to apply too much force tho. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_8.jpg[/IMG] Stretch the rubber ring across in to the gap you made by leverage. Job done. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_10.jpg[/IMG] Side note, I'm not sure if all motorcycle tire tubes are of the same thickness...but mine were abit thicker than the gap available between the clip stand & clip itself. So if possible, get a tube with thickness less than a 20cent coin. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a221/chr1xxx/clipfix_9.jpg[/IMG] Now I can drive without mad rattlez. [/QUOTE]
