3rd Generation Rattling Hood

When I am at Idle, (RPM's around 800) my hood rattles a little bit. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how to remedy this little nusence. My Hood is latched and secured fully, yet it still rattles a little bit, (just enough to be anoying). Is there an adjustment in the latch, so that it can hold it down further. The rattling will stop if I but a little pressure on the hood, right ontop of the latch

Thanks Mike

if you look to the sides of the rad support, you will see black bumpers that adjust the height of the hood.....see if those are holding the hood or not...

I had this problem too, it usually started around 600-800 or so rpms. The problem was the latch itself, the rubber had been worn away leaving just the metal. I just took electrical tape and put some around the little loop on the latch. Problem solved.
