3rd gen runner turn signal lights loose.

Anyone besides me notice this???
I was laying under my rig last night and I tap things just to see whats loosened up or is making noise.
The two turn signal housings are literally jangling around even though they are
tight.
I use 9/16" gray surgical tubing to stiff them up. I've used many pieces of this to stop things up front from vibrating and making noise while offroading.
A one inch piece will compress behind many things and stop the noise.

I've also used these thin 5 inch velcro straps ( for wire managment) and wrapped them around the front grill screw/ pop lock locations. The grill is another vibrating menace that makes plenty of noise and squeeking.
They work great and I think Home Depot sells them. The grill no longer squeeks or vibrates.

Sometimes I'll slice the tubing lengthwise and slide it over a thin edge to stop rubbing. Like my aftermarket horns up front that jump and vibrate or on the bottom of my front license plate that vibrates.
things are pretty quiet up front now. Kenny S>
