Default Passenger seat rattle cure?

Im just wondering if anyone as a DIY mod to stop the rattling of the passenger seat when there is no one sitting in it? I have come to be very annoyed with the rattling and would like to do something about it. TIA.

The seatback actually shakes when going over bumps. I move mine up but it still does it.

Actually, move it BACK till the seatback has pressure against the wall behind it. Once wedged like that, it won't rattle. It just the nature of the seat. You won't find a DIY fix for it. You can always experiment and come up with one.
