don't play it so loud? :dunno:

you can take it all apart if you want to see if you can't get it to sit better and stop shaking, but honestly... if you have your radio up too high all you're doing is killing your ears, and after a while you will start to lose your hearing for good.--i know you don't need to hear it but, honestly, it's pointless

What year Teg? Take a picture of the exact part of the door lock for me. You might consider a sound dampener like Brown Bread or Dynomat for your doors, since that's where you say the rattle is coming from.

is it screwed in all the way?

if it's the piece im thinking of... there is a flap behind your door handle, pull it out, there is a screw there.... tighten it... it's the only thing holding that handle on... so it could be thats loose

I've got a g2. Mine was loose and rattling a bit, and the screw was in as far as I could get it. I took it off, found a small black lock washer and put it on the screw. It's never rattled or wiggled again, and you can't tell what I did unless you bend down and really examine it.
