Dash Rattles

The black plastic housing around the instrument cluster is starting to rattle somethin fierce. I put some two sided tape in between it and the rest of the dash all over and it seemed to do nothing. How can I more securely attach it without doing something PERMANENT!

It sounds like the clips that hold it on are getting worn or loose. First try removing it and cleaning really good with some Simple Green or other cleaner to remove any dust or dirt, then aplly a thin film of Vaseline or lithium grease around the edges and all contact points. It's worked for me in the past, just have to do it every few months.
