Annoying Rattle - Toyota Yaris Forums

i don't have the ability to post pics right now. i noticed that while driving if i put my hand anywhere on the console around speedometer tach etc, that it would stop the squeaks and rattles. just the other day i was getting tired of it so i ripped off approx 1in by 1in sections of a napkin (toilet paper would prob work also) and shimmied them in between the gap of the clear plastic protector in front of the speedometer and the black plastic of the dash. i don't know if ours was the same problem but i do know that it took away 80% of the noises. im going to try to shimmie a couple more down there to see if it fixes it all. hope this helps a little and im sorry i cant post pics.
