Just had this kit of foams and felts delivered to try and fix a few of the squeaks and rattles.

My first thought was "That's amazing!" then I guess you haven't owned an Alfa? Haha!
Squeaks and rattles used to drive me crazy! Then I had a couple of Italian cars in my possession, and owned a couple of Alfas...imagine the sensory shock I had coming from a "hewn from granite" Golf.

Yeah, NC owners would be aware of the rattles in the soft top latch cover and on the covers either side of it
as well as the buzz that sometimes happens in the rear parcel shelf after an exhaust system is fitted.
All gone now

I'd imagine the NC would have the least amount of squeaks compared to an NA or NB.

Piece of 20mm black pipe insulation split and slipped over the front edge of the tray.
Instant fix
