County windows rattle as standard, the best way to stop them is nick some beer mats from your local pub and wedge them in the gap!!

Worked for mine!! :wink:

Do they have to say beer on them or can they say cider

Had this with mine. Halfords do a pack of 'External double sided sticky pads' that come in little black squares.
Open the window and fold one in half around the edge of the glass that fits into the frame when the window is closed. Do this 1" from the top and 1" from the bottom then shut the window.

If you have any protruding outside the frame trim it off with a sharp craft knife. Job done.

You will of course have two neat little black rectandles on the glass with the windows open but they hardly notice and look proffesssional if done neatly.

HTH :wink:

The sticky side in the frame helps to stop the rattle too but is not sufficiently sticky to stop you from opening the window. When they wear just replace, you get about 50 in pack for about £3 mine have been on for 18 months with the original ones

Hehe same has happened to mine. Stopped exhaust rattle and can now hear window rattle. Only does it when ticking over mind, or maybe I just can't hear it when the engine is revving :lol:
If theres a harder way to do it I`ll find it!!
