Use felt on the inside of the button and the inside of the slider.

The rattle in my b-pillar was coming from the seat belt position button. Here's how I fixed it.

1. This is the seat belt position button.
2. Hold button down.
3. With button held down, add a strip of felt (with sticky back) about 1" x 1/4".
4. Release button and the felt strip should slide behind the plastic with a snug fit.

Step 1: Remove glove box. Open glove box, to the right of the glove box there is a piston that is snapped on to the glovebox itself, just pop that off towards the right. Then press the sides of the glovebox in a bit, enough to let the catches come out. Let it drop and then you can pull it out.

Step 2: Grab yourself some flexible self-adhesive felt. I got mine from JO-ANNS fabrics, but you can also get yourself some from any other place old ladies go to shop. Mine looks like this:



There are several kinds of self-adhesive fabric, but you want the kind that is somewhat thin, and flexible. This brand here works very, very well for what we're doing.

Step 3: In case you haven't already realized, there are 4 points your glovebox rests on while it is SHUT. There are two catches (one on each side) that move in and out when you pull on the handle, and then there are the pivot points. These are the points that we are going to cover with felt, because some moron at mitsubishi decided it wasn't a good idea to spend an extra half of a cent to get rid of a rattle problem.



This is the side catch. Cut it a little oversized and then put it on. Once it's on you can take a pair of very sharp cloth scissors and trim it to match the edge of the plastic exactly.



In the above picture is one of the two pivot points you will also be covering with felt. I did a no-no and under-sized mine. You'll once again want to over-size it, put it on, then cut it to match the edges.

Once it's on give them a good rub to be sure of adhesion and you're all set! Put the glovebox in the exact opposite way you took it out. If you can't figure that out then maybe you shouldn't be driving at all.

You'll notice immediately it's a much tighter fit, which is good. This will dramatically reduce rattles from the glovebox, if not completely stop them like it did on mine. This technique works for all kinds of things in the car. Have a rattly dash? Just put felt on the white aligator clips and it goes away! This is what honda, nissan, and toyota all have from the factory and I never understood why mitsubishi doesn't do the same..

I've pulled apart almost the entire dash and discovered the cause but I don't know how to fix it, the vibration comes from this white box




Any help please? the vibration only comes when I'm at 2k rpm, I know is not a luxury car but it has so many rattles!!
