Stopping vibrations in panels

[Sguirrelfeather]

I've got a lot of sound deadening/insulation/isolation work done to my truck, and it has worked great. However, there is one panel that just won't stop vibrating. Short of liquid nailing that sucker down, what options would you recommend. Also, I have an overhead console with a rather large lens for the interior lights. Sure, I could RTV that sucker in there and it would stop vibrating, but then I wouldn't be able to change the bulbs when they die. Is there a less permanent way to get that lens to stop rattling, short of me holding it when the volume is turned up? lol

Shove foam everywhere. Worked for me.

Double sided permanent mounting tape like this

That will work for the dome light cover as far as the panel I'd have to see it but that tape may work as well

I've got a 50 foot roll of 1/16" double sided sticky foam tape which is coming in handy for lots of things!

No, but if he seals it good and tight and then gets his nose, too, the problem will rectify itself.

Yeah, I did that already. lol I think I'm just going to pull it out and re-do everything. Maybe something came loose and I didn't realize it, or a clip isn't seated right.

Didn't even think of that! It just might work. Makes a tight fit and allows a buffer zone of sorts so it's not plastic on plastic rattling. I'll go get some!

Thanks guys!
