Noisey interior, what to do?
My 89 bird makes lots of rattling sounds in the back interior hatch when driven. I think it's the plastic little panels back there that are a little loose, Iv'e tried tightening them up but those damn cheap plastic screws are to fragile.
Any tips on how to stop this or any other rattling/noisey interior parts, thanks.

Some stick on felt or the fuzzy part of Velcro at plastic to plastic contact areas should cure any rattling. Thats what they use on car's today.
A lot of the screws in the dash tend to loosen up over time or were never tight to begin with.
Overall its pretty hard to make a 3rd-gen completely rattle free without a lot of work. There are lots of plastic interior parts and places were there should have been more attaching screws/better engineering.
