They only rattle when they are open! They are a tight fit on the seals when they are closed

My passenger side window was rattling and driving me nuts. I found that it was the rubber lining of the rear guide channel that had come out so the window was rattling against the metal. I managed to get it out and clean it up and re glue it bac in position quiet as a mouse now.

Quality bit of DIY there Ian, I'm surprised nobody's thought of this great solution before. They also appear to particularly suit the Griff, I guess if you could make them colour coded there'd be quite a market for them... I'd certainly be up for some if you can do them in Highland Pearl... What kind of cost are we looking at here? I'm thinking maybe a group buy?
