    Does anyone have a rattle in the center storage compartment lid? If so, what did you do to get rid of it?

    In the meantime, I put my right arm on it while driving.

    I notice my center lid latch is not very snug, but it is not rattling yet. If it does I'll stick a peace of sticky back foam under the edge near the latch that will keep it snug up against the latch. No adjustment on the latch that I can see. H

    There may be screws securing it. look for rubber caps hiding screws.

    To me it appears as if the latch is part of the lid? H

    I do know that if you exert pressure on the bottom rear, the whole thing will come out. Usually it's a bottle in the holder, when wrapped with a napkin it quits. :cheer2:

    What will come out?

    The sound is not from something in the holder; it's from the lid of the storage compartment.
