I saw your post on the FI exhaust thread and Tony said to bend the corner away for my clearance. Please let me know what you did to resolve it. Its drving me bonkers!

Thanks!!!
Yup I bend the corner like the instruction said.. but it was still vibration, so I removed.

RESULT: The rattle from the back that sound like the metal is completely gone. I am happy.

However there are some rattle (plastic, not metal, coming from passenger side. I am trying to isolate that buy driving at that RPM range where rattle begin and putting my hand on stuff to see.

I also remove the Touring model retractable trunk cover and that HELP A TON!

BTW, I have Touring model with Bose, 7AT.
