Alright heres the deal. I recently took apart my sunroof to replace the gasket and while i was at it cleaned the shade off of all that felt junk. Well when i go to open my shade i kind of aggresively slam it in to hold it in place to keep it from sliding back and forth. Well i noticed now that i do this the drivers side part of the shade tries to go all the way back into the roof. And there is an aweful rattle. I got to looking and that metal trim plate that has the three screws in the front has what looks to be 2 pieces that hold it down in the back corners as well as provide a stopping point for the shade. Well im missing the one on the drivers side and now that metal trim rattles up and down and the shade does what ive said. Does anyone know what im talking about and does anyone have that little piece? i didnt even bother with trying to take a picture of it because its so small that its hard to point out in the pic. I cant really explain it other than its a kind of slide on piece to hold the rear portion of that trim down. Without it when u hit bumps it sounds like coke cans are being thrown on the roof, gotta get this fixed! Any help or suggestions are appreciated. heck if i can glue the damn thing down where it wont rattle than that works too. Just give me some advice if yall could. This is driving me crazy :rant:

Well i tore into it today and i cant find that little piece to save my life. So i ended up putting soft side of the velcro all over everything to give it all padding. So far i think its gonna work. If not then ill be back with another rattle trap post! :rant:
