Correct indeed. Centering pin on dash rattling against metal eyelet on body. "Felt tape used to insulate, referred to in bulletin 510502".

More often than not, I prefer to listen to the engine than the radio/CD player. The loss of that annoying rattling is most appreciated

I thought the "Batmobile Package" wasn't going to be available before the '06 model year.
