Yea, there's one screw that you take off on the inside part of the door. Then you just have to rip it off. You might have to replace the christmas tree snap ons.

I had the infamous rattle in my first Silvia.

Took it to Nissan here in Japan, found out it was a factory recall item. They fixed it for free.

Bears looking into if the Japanese had it as a recall it "Should" be one in the US too.....

Just a thought.

Good luck.

Old thread, but the only one I could find that talks about window rattling. Anyone know how to fix this? I replace my window motors and the guides (I forget what they're officially called). The window is tight on the rail, but it rattles like a bitch going up and down. Anyone know what it might be and how to fix?
