Fixed My Glovebox Rattle

[xinvisionx]

This glovebox rattle has been driving me nuts for a while and I finally took the time to resolve it.

When the car vibrates, this wire was hitting a plastic piece causing my insane rattle. To resolve it, I wrapped part of the wire with a small strip of velcro. Then on the plastic part, I placed a small round velcro piece. That way it would hold steady.

My test drive confirmed the fix and I hope it helps others.

Thanks for sharing with labels in the pics too! I haven't heard this rattle in my car but if I do, I have your post bookmarked.

You need to be authoring more writeups.

I think my rattle is coming from my mirror, but maybe it's just hiding this asshole.. I mean rattle.

Thank you for this.

Can you describe the rattle? I definitely have one behind the mirror that I need to do and then one right behind the infotainment screen

My rattle was not near the mirror or infotainment.

There's nothing like going full crackhead mode tearing apart panels to chase a rattle

I may have this rattle too because it sounded like something in my glove box but that's probably the asshole wire

I've done that a few times to wrap as much of the wires with harness tape as I could to muffle any noises and rattles.

This one required so little to find.
