My new Tron with a FF speaker kit already installed and a shaker rattles the windows in my house, not to mention the pin itself. I get no rattling when I play with the glass off.

Thus, I'm looking to fix this situation. The FF and PinballPro anti-rattle tape are within $2 shipped price differential to my door. ($27 and $25, respectively). Obviously, the two bucks doesn't matter. I just want to get the best product.

So, which is best? (or is there an even better solution - perhaps more cost-effective?)

Quoted from Tekman:

Electrical tape is not a long term solution. I've seen the effects first hand after the glass has been slid in and out many times. It turns into a shredded sticky mess over time.
---insert shameless plug here---
I happen to sell the exact same anti-rattle tape for only $11 shipped anywhere in the USA. If you're interested, shoot me a PM.

I just decided to order a roll of this. $11 shipped seems very fair. I'll post a comment on its effectiveness once I put it on my pin.

Thanks Tekman!

Update. Installed the tape today. Tape was required on both sides of the glass to completely remove the rattle but works great.

$11 on a $6k+ purchase is WELL, WELL worthwhile!
