Passenger wheel area rattle? Solved.

If you have an annoying rattle when going over small bumps and uneven surfaces, I've got a good candidate for you.

How did you secure it?

There are two plastic pins holding it in place (poorly) facing the outside, left if you are looking at it from the front. I pulled the front most pin out and wedged it between a welding seam just below the hole. It's basically in the same place, just firmly pinned in place now.

For the plastic strut tower cover, I used adhesive felt pads near the contact points between the metal and plastic. I basically just kept tapping to find where there was contact and put them there.

This probably isn't permanent due to weak adhesive, but it will buy me time to get some weather proof rubber adhesive pads.
