Default door panel rattle

My door panels rattle on every bump and it drives me nuts! What pieces do I need to buy and replace when I take apart my door panel to replace my speakers, also does anyone know where to get another door lock mech. Rear passanger mech quit working.

You mean the lock won't go up and down when you hit button. That would be the actuator and you can buy them anywhere. As far as the rattles, the tabs may be out of the holders or the screws might be loose

Yeah it won't go up and down most times every once in awhile it works but most of the time it won't work.

The screws won't stay tight and one just keeps turning and turning after it gets a certain point in the thread
