Last week I removed the passenger side inner door panel to replace the outside mirror. Laying on the inside of the door I found these two items. The white plastic piece with three grooves, I located on google. It is referred to as a window anti rattle device. Of course now my passenger window rattles when it is in the down position.
I looked through my ford service manual and could not locate this anti rattle device. Could someone tell me where it should be located, and how to install it?
I also found a small retaining nut that I don't know where it should go.
My second issue is the sheet metal screws that attach the regulator and solenoid to the left fender inside the engine bay. These are black sheet metal screws with a hex head. I believe the size is a #12.
On my car, I am missing a couple of these. The other issue is that where they are missing the screw hole has been stripped out. I attempted a 1/4" lock washer to take up some space and put pressure against the screw head hoping it would hold. This failed.
Do I need to go to the next size large screw, or does someone have a fix for this they can offer.
I purchased this car about six months ago and I'm just finding time to start working on it. I can see I'm going to have a few questions for the forums.
Thanks in advance.
