Rattling Glove Box door

[JimIsbell]

After three years, I am tired of the glove box door rattling. Has anyone fixed this and HOW? The latch is tight and the hinges are tight. Its just that the door is too big to be supported at only three points!!!

Are items 5 & 15 intact, and is the reciever for the lock adjusted?

I see no way to adjust the part of the latch that is on the door and adjustment to the wire loop it connects to looks like "bending" but I am afraif to do it for fear it will break the plastic its mounted on. But there is very little movement int the latch anyway. there are two rubber stoppers on the upper corners of the door, but they dont touch the frame when the door is latched.

Jim,

I find my glove box is less inclined to rattle when it's lightly loaded. Lighten its load if you can.

I also wonder if you can get those rubber stoppers partially compressed when the door is closed. Shims?

With a wife, its hard to keep the glovebox lightly loaded. I do find that the higher the tire pressure the more it rattles.....LOL

I used shims on the glove box door that touch the rubber stoppers. Works great. There are these self-sticking felt type at HomeDepot I used. Also works great on the rear hatch door rattle issue

That sounds like what I need. My hatch doesnt rattle though. Thanks for the idea.
