Coupe rear rattle 50% solved....

Have had an annoying 'buzz' on rough surfaces from the pax rear for a while now, but never been in that seat to work it out.

Well, the rattle is from the piece of plastic trim the runs along the rear quarter window. If I tap it, it resonates....bonza!

Seems that the little metal clips all need replacing, tried a bit if grease on them, but no joy, they still resonate.

Downside is I cannot get the trim out as seems to be beneath the b pillar, which seems too well attached for my skills to pull off :(

Will be taking it into a dealer to get it sorted now, as I have failed....but at least know where the rattle was!

B pillar removed, and 2 broken clips, awaiting Mark at Soper to come to the rescue with the correct parts for me.

The only other annoying rattle now is right behind my ear, caused by the seatbelt guide. I've uncrewed it to gliptone under it, but it seems to be the plastic clip itself that is rattling. Aside from bodging it with glue / blutac is there a simple fix aside from buying another?

Can't seem to get anything out of the search function
