Windshield rattling sound/highway speeds

Mine looks ok.

that looks like youre looking under the hood towards the wheel well.. what you need to do is turn the wheels all the way to the right or left and get into the driver side front wheel well.. its the rubber piece towards the firewall. i'll try to get a pic posted for ya tomorrow of the exact piece.

Thanks. I thought you meant the black piece above towards the right side here.

I have had similar issues. Temperature does seem to be a factor, at times. I also noticed the black plastic insert for the roof rack channels runs all the way forward to the windshield seal. A small piece of 2-sided tape and a hook mechanism holds the forward end down, which over time gave way on mine. At highway speeds the front end of the plastic strip was fluttering. Hours of searching and cursing when all along, my friend, the answer was blowing in the wind.

There seems to be so many possibilities though...
