Lubricating latch attachment?
i have that tell tale rattle in my center console storage and was wondering if you guys have a good lubricant to recommend which can be applid to the latch attachment. i think that's the issue, since if i leave the console open there is no rattle. but i really can't see which part of the latch is affected.

I believe it's the latch attachment and it really shows up in the cold weather, but I can't figure out what the right way to tackle it is, certainly don't need a new console, but perhaps a new latch. Or some krytox perhaps?

Try Krytox 205, it's an odorless grease dispensed in a syringe-like device. It won't melt or harden in extreme temps and also acts as a dampening agent in that shitty designed latch.
This is cheaper than the real deal, same substance: http://www.amazon.com/Finish-Line-Ex...eywords=krytox

Let us know how it works out. You'll have leftover, so apply to ALL the rubber seals, you'll be surprised at how quiet the cabin becomes.
