glovebox organizer rattles

Has anyone put the glovebox organizer in and have the items shake and rattle more than before? I had no problems of items making any rolling and rattling problems before even they do roll back and forth while driving. so i put the organizer in and the same items i had without it makes a lot of rolling and rattling sounds. Anyone knows why that the items i had before that placed in the organizers pockets makes more noise?

Probably because they now have space to roam; before they were all crammed together. If you corner like I do, inertia frequently has precedence over friction. Put in a few more soft things like napkins or small kleenex packages to act as padding, and it'll stop.

i only kept the mini manuel, cd holder, and gloves in there which didn't take up so much room, so they did have a lot more room to roll around. its just i was kinda hoping for them to be secured more in place with the organizer, which i bought it for, so you know i was kinda disappointed that i spent some money on something that didn't really help much. haha, not to sound cheap, but so far i was happier when it had no organizer. haha o well
