2. Cut out a towel or piece of cloth in the following forms:
3 Apply between control panel and car body, then snap the control panel back into place.
Voila, no more plastic on plastic crime in your car.
Went to dealer for 5,000 service and mentioned this issue but was practically ignored i guess since they were just trying to get the car out of there. Didnt want to spend more time taking it back to I decided to take matters into my own hands.
Them fools at the dealer actually did u a solid favor. U don't want them dealing with these kind of stuff man, trust me. It's either they'll send u home with more rattles or broken clips and scratches that u won't even notice until a few days later, then they'll deny all damages caused.
So u did the right thing by taking this matter into ur own hands. I would too!

Exactly, this is why I didnt bother asking them to take a look at it once I found out they didnt the first time. I know more about this car then most of the guys in there. When I pulled in to the dealer the valet guy was like "wtf? is that a GS-F?"
lmao
Just a small update for those who are experiencing the rattles on the door:
The rattles went away with 2 small pieces but then they came back, so it wasnt enough. I then had to cut a piece out that fit the entire length of the switch panel for extra padding throughout, to make sure all the contact points were properly padded.
Only slightly related -- does anyone know of any videos or instructions for removing the interior portion of the door? Basically I want to remove the rest of the door, not just the control panel.
Edit: if we don't have a video yet, when I go through the process, I will try and document.

I did it a while ago but didn't have a video of it.
Buy some clips for the door panel first before u start tearin' cause those clips will most likely break when u pull them out and they lose strength so better to replace them all. Dealer can tell u how many u need for one door panel.
I had my dealer deal with this awhile ago. I thought it was a blown speaker at first. Dealer pointed out it was a window switches. If it comes back I'll reference this video.
