A pillar/dash rattle cure...

If anyone else has a rattle where the A pillar meets the dash, I cured mine by cutting a 3-4" piece of one of those flatter black rubber bungee cords and tucking it into the slot where the dash meets the A piller. Cured that. Now of course I noticed 3 more...

Rubber bungee cord? Hmmm. That sounds novel. Most people around here have used weather stripping. Where does one get flat rubber like that? I'd like to give it a try...

i sugest using weather stripping. I bought some at home depot for like $7 a roll(black,3/4"). One side is about 3/4" think and the other side has an adhesive on it. Lay the adhesive side down along then entire span of the pillar(inside obviously), then lay another layer down on the metal side. Now re-install the pillar(will be very tight) but wont rattle EVER AGAIN!!
