Default Anyone have Interior Squeeks and Rattles?

I lowered my car with the Tein H springs .09" in front & 1.7" in rear. The look is just what I wanted; right in the middle of both Eibach (SP?) springs. The car rides much firmer and feels great! However, I have noticed a few rattles and squeeks in the interior since I made the swap. Does anyone else that has lowered their car have the same issue?

I vaguely recall a thread somewhere about a loose bracket underneath/behind the passenger side airbag that you can easily tighten down to make that squeak go away.

Get yourself a set of Tokico D-Specs 16 way shocks and struts. The only down side is they cost about $650 but they do make a big difference.

Hey RICVA05: have you measured the ground clearance behind your front wheel and before rear wheel rocker panel? I am curious to see how low you are.

I'm going to look into that. I was just thinking, it could be some of the stuff in my glove compartment.

4" ground clearance behind front wheels 4-3/4"just in front of rear wheels and 8" just behind rear wheels.

I hear something like a spring tensioning either in the driver's seat or right around the driver's compartment. It only seems to happen while I am driving; I have tried reproducing the sound just sitting still but it never seems to do it. Something is tensioning while I drive and I can't figure out what it is.

I have that same rattle in the passenger side somewhere around the dash. I noticed it the other week, and it's nothing in my dash. If someone finds out how to fix it let me know.
