Stop Wind Deflector From Vibrating
I believe someone had posted, trying to fix the sunroof wind deflector from vibrating with bass, I found an easy fix using that sticky velcro felt fasteners (which I picked up at home depot for about $6 for 5' piece) to the wind deflector to stop the contact between the metal vibrating against the sunroof. Will post pictures of what it looks like once installed and how it goes. credit goes to whoever was asking about this.

How well does it work? What did the original vibration sound like?
I hear a thump sound coming from roof when I hit a bump in the road but I don't know if that is the same thing.

those pics so close I am not sure what I'm looking at. Is this piece get pull down when the sunroof close? I always want to find out where it hit and just stick it there.

The sound was mostly like to milk jugs banging together it was basically the metl vibrating against the top half of the sunroof, and that thump also used to happen to me when going over big potholes. tried it today and it works perfectly.

[/QUOTE]bigblack06, thanks. Does it completely stop the noise? I'll try it out. 
yeah it works perfectly there is no rubbing against the metal as before.
It moslty quite in the cabin aside from the creaks and rattles from the dashboard.

nope it should be perfectly fine as long as your not gonna keep it directly in sunlight for a week straight. just apply and give the adhesive some time to stick, but it really sould be fine, I have had my sunroof open and the sunlight has been beating on it, and has not flown off.

Oh I know it won't flown off, I just afraid the adhesive melt and create a mess up there.
If I drive high speed and press my hand on this plate, it should stop the vibration while my hand is press right? I want to make sure I am fixing the correct thing.
