I took the rusted/stripped screws out, and drilled a new hole past the plastic. Then I just got me some non-rust screws for like 80 cents, and put it in. Only thing that rattles now is my 3rd brake light... soon to be replaced with a neon.

it makes your plate rattle, what do you think it does to other peoples ear drums??? or do you care???? get rid of the base and you will not have that problem..............
is it not against the law in your state to have a radio that can be heard more than 40 ft. away from the vehicle??

seems kinda cheap for a part from the dealer, they want like $4 to $5 for a one dollar lamp bulb... sure thats not a mistake on their part for charging you so little????
i went to a for dealer back in 1973 and bought a bumper.. the manager of the shop was telling the guy who waited on me to give me the 10, 10,10, 10, 10 discount............
like 10 percent each time he spoke.. he studdered.. so i dont know if he wanted me go get about 40 -50 percent off or what... the bumper(still all metal back then cost me about $30... i think i got a deal????

Bass dont hurt people's ear drums. You are thinking of treble. All they hear is some rattling, and its only all the way up when im on the highway, or in moving traffic.
And no, I dont care.

Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem.
