[QUOTE="macdaque, post: 134263, member: 2704"] leakwoon, try this - use some of the bluetack (you know, those for sticking notes on the wall?), and pull to reduce to very thin strip, paste/stick it on the four plastic strips (black, on and part of the cover) that fasten the 3rd brake lights to the housing, and the two clips (white) [basically all points of contact] - has to be very thin to avoid the plastic from cracking when replacing housing. Then cover back, making sure that nothing rattles. You can also do that with the gearbox cover, the cover below the steering, and the interior triangular side mirror cover - also rattle. After that, drive over uneven roads, and feel the magic of bluetack - many uses, but not mentioned in the instructions that can be used for automotive uses. :D Liew. [/QUOTE]
