Rattly parcel shelf

robsterpaterson · Feb 8th, 2019, 19:52

Hi folks. As title really, my parcel shelf is very rattly. I've padded the sides, where it slides into the mounting, out with thick padded tape but it made no difference.
Anyone else suffer from this? Very annoying.

Yes me too, and the fix was easy

I bought self-adhesive Velcro tape, and stuck some of the soft part on the cargo area cover. The adhesive is really strong.
This stopped the plastic on plastic contact, which was making the rattling squeaking sound over bumps
Now dead quiet.

Yep, worked for me too.

OK, so two votes for velcro. I need a bit more explanation on the application though. A pic or two would be greatly appreciated guys
