Unhappy pass seat rattle (2?)

i just noticed recently, that while empty, the passenger seat rattles real bad, like a metal clicking. if i jam my arm into it, it stops rattling i didnt really feel like standing in the rain to investigate the source. anyone have this problem or sound familer

second question, the damn dealer moved my car across the lot to get me my lender car, 2010 camaro, but they failed to go around the curb and put the sgt up ino the curb and back down. epic win. cause now drivers sice rims are bented and the rucker panel is dragging. they offered to lower the price of a camaro for trade but thats not what i want. so back to my pickle. spend the 1200 through cruizen concepts for a new set of the 20 inch feetz like a have current plus the rocker that broke in half. any ideas? any good take off parts you know off i coulld core for a cheap deal? i would love the whit but maybe flat black rockers too i dont know. any links or names you cuold put me into direction. btw, phoenx metro.hope this helps thanks ladies and gents. i am getting married very soon my my paper turns ito our paper and fralky i believe a LTs go farther than shower curtains. thanks for the love gents

Fix for passenger seat rattle. On the underneath side of the seat near the front, there is a silver bracket attached to a metal plate. I found that when putting pressure either on the plate or the bracket when hitting the back rest, the rattle would go away. There is a small space between the silver bracket and the plate. I stuffed as much foam padding as I could between the bracket and the plate and the rattle is gone. Thank God because the rattle was driving me nuts.

this is the fix for any rattle in your Mustang:
make your exhaust louder so you cant hear the rattle.

The dealer that broke the car should fix it, if not, see a legal advisor.....
