Grrrr! My First Rattle, and...

...it's my fault!

The cabin of our convertible was wonderfully devoid of creaks and squeaks, until we installed the light bar. Even though we've installed these bars before with successful (read: quiet) results, I think this time around the marginal stiffening is causing something to rub in the backseat.

The bolts are tight, all panels look reinstalled correctly...anyone else had this issue with a 2010+? Looks like I will have to take everything back apart again and look for an area of contact. Bleh!

Have someone sit in the back seat while driving to see if they can isolate the sound.

Suckage. Sounds like it's time for that loud exhaust, LOL.

I have a foam weatherstrip working loose in the form of a loop hanging down from the soft top (when it's up, which isn't often), just above the passenger side rear side window. it seems to be getting worse with every up cycle.

There's another dealer warranty trip, altho I doubt they'll know what to do with it.
