Annoying door pin rattle
« on: 28 July 2011, 19:13 »
Anyone had this? Driving on the motorway and the stupid door pin is rattling loudly. Happens on both my cars.

Can you custom fit a MK4 style one? Anyone done it?

Where all my moneys went.

Golf MK3 1.6. Golf MK3 8v GTI.

These have always bugged me as well, I superglued the little plastic ring surrounds into door cards and then wrapped a small piece of glaziers feathertape around the lower half of the door pin, this helped loads.

have you still got the caps that fit in the hole? can you not just screw off the pin and bung it up?  not sure if the pin will still rattle inside though?
