I love the turtle wax ice series. I use the polish, spray wax and detailer.

Then once a year I clay and use a polish with a bite.

Still the roof, hatch glass and sides of the hatch are scratched up.

Well my rattle is in the vertical piece of glass on the back hatch. It just disappointing.

And quoting from a movie (can you guess which one) "Damn rap music, so angry".

Where did I go? I traded my Insight. Thank god I did, because I ended up getting a new job a few weeks later that is only 2 miles away from my home and a hybrid would've been utterly useless.

Yeah, I wished I could rent or drive a mustang for the fun of it. Like every other resident out here has one or a camero on their lawn for sale. I thought trading my geo for one would be a snap, not so.

I am moving to Chesterfield and will be in the same situation. I would be lucky to have the cold engine light go off. I am however considering owning an EV, NEV, GEM, Segway, golf cart, etc.

Woo HOO!

The rattle is NOT my glass after banging and banging on my glass I determined that it was actually my license plate rattling! I put some foam under it that sticks on one side to the back of the plate and yippee the rattle is gone! The license plate is tight I checked the bolts but the bottom was the cause of the rattle! Kind of strange though that it just showed up in the last month.

So my Insight is as solid as ever!

Mines was like that too. I had a bell customer license plate frame and my license plate was bent. I got a chrome honda insight frame. Nice tight fit and sold feel.

I have a Steeler's frame around my plate but the whole thing was still rattling. The bolts are tight that is why I put the foam under it.

One wonders why license plates and most frames come with four holes but vehicle manufacturers only provide two mounting holes.
