The rattle has a story.
It was associated with the bonnet protector but thats not the beginning of it.
When I got the truck it was missing the passenger side adjustable bonnet button rubber.(at each side front).
Id say it had been missing for a while and this allowed the bonnet to flap (vibrate)
The aerodynamics of the bonnet protector made this vibration worse.
But the real issue was the wear that this vibration was causing in the driver side bonnet hinge.
So even after the rubber support button was replaced and the bonnet protector was removed the rattle was still there sometimes when driving on rough ground.
