im not a genious or anything, but i cut a tiny piece of black electrical tape and pushed it in their and no more rattle. I learned from my last system that when something rattles, just need to deaden it somehow. take, dynomat. anything to keep 2 pieces of metal or plastic from vibing on eachother. dont be afraid to try a simple fix
open the door handle all the way, push a piece of tape in their sticky part facing the door, close. play ,music. if it still vibs, try again

LIES! Hey it worked. Have you had any problems with summer heat an the electrical tape getting gooey? That's my only concern.

Thanks.
