Default plastic latch rattle fix help

Now I have a little time to monkey with the car, how do you guys keep those plastic things on the top latch from rattles when going over bumps. I am thinking about glue. I search also, and tighten every screw there but it still loose. any help would be great.

A cheap fix is to find some plastic tubing (like the kind used with fish tanks) and place it over the hooks on the latch. You could also buy hardtop strikers and just replace everything.

^^Mine is creaking already so I'm going to go do this instead of getting it done at the dealership and wasting precious time. Thanks.
