Passenger Side Rattle SOLVED!

I saw a very old post about a rattle on the passenger side of the car. I have the same problem and found the source so I decided to contribute to the knowledge center of the forums (I have been taking a lot lately and now I can give back!).

Problem:
Plastic sounding rattle from the passenger seat area. Sounds like it is coming from the passenger door.

Source:
The rattling is coming from the passenger seat fore/aft adjustment handle. The handle has slop in the seat attachment pivot point. This rattles and causes the plastic trim on the seat to vibrate. When I hold the handle, the sounds stops.

Solution:
Not sure. I need to find out how to insert some kind of bushing between the hole on the handle and the shaft on the seat or add a spring to preload the joint.
