Hey, where's that youtube video you talk about? Or just a key word so I don't have to search forever. Thanks.

yeah mine just vibrates - no noise - unless im not listening enough haha....once in a while the leather around the shifter rubs together fromt he shifter vibration for a slight noise of friction but I just smooth the leather out and it's gone

the video i mentioned just shows the vibration - no mention or audible noise but here it is

Thanks for the comments folks, but somewhere rattle morphed into vibration, which I DON'T care about. Oh well.
A RWD car's shifter will always vibrate more than FWD for obvious reasons.
The rattling noise I menitoned is due to too much slop on the linkages, and happens at high rpms and high engine loads, but it's pretty obvious that's not a problem on these cars, and that's all I wanted to hear. Thanks again.

I've taken it over 7k rpms multiple times. No rattling.
