i have a tick/rattle here (circled in pink) that comes up whilst on certain types of roads



if i press on that corner slightly, it stops until i lift my finger!

my first real attempt at fixing it was per a recommendation from a member here named Albert, who has become rather adept at fixing these things. i used slow setting super glue in strategic spots (again, pink circles)

top*


bottom


side


*regarding the red arrow in the first pic, make sure to not glue any of those little round holes on either the top or the bottom - those are your vertical vent slats!

ANYWAY, this hasn't worked completely. in fact, i think it's just chance that the ticking is reduced a bit, since the whole thing was removed and replaced, probably shifting things enough to cause a slight change overall.

so, now i'm trying to figure out what else to do. foam tape and the like is probably the next move, but it's hard to figure out where to put that since there are no edges that seem like they will be friendly with that treatment.

hmm.
