What have you guys done about either the front or rear clips not being securely held by the latches and then vibrating and rattling as you drive over uneven pavement? I have already pulled one of the red handles off the cable because one of the latches was so tight that it required more force than the red handled cable could tolerate. I managed to fix that but I was wondering what others are doing so that the car doesn't sound like it is poorly constructed when it rolls down crummy roads.
Thanks,
Paul

I wrapped some pvc insulating tape around the pin part of the catch. Although the "forked" part of the catch cuts into the tape, it does stop it rattling. Simply renew the tape when it starts to rattle again.
