      These things always pop up when it gets cold, and I hate it. You could run some electrical tape inside the pocket up to the door panel to try to hold it fast, or use some sort of buffer (paper, foam, etc.) between the pocket and the door panel. It shouldn't need much.

        Yeah! I've tracked down a lot of cabin squeaks and shut em up with foam and self adhesive moleskin and weatherstripping, but this one takes the cake. wiggle the top of the map pocket. creakcreakycreak AHRRGGG

        I have some black fabric that i'm going to see if i can wedge in between with a butter knife. Thanks for the ideas, I'll let you know how it goes.
