Secure Bose Speaker Emblem?

I have been hearing a terrible vibration from my passenger side front speaker at moderate volume levels and have narrowed it down to the Bose emblem. Has anyone had this problem and found a good way to secure the emblem? The drivers side emblem is not vibrating and is held in the same way.

Yes and Yes. Remove the door panel, and then pry up the "pins". Put some glue on the bose emblum, and drop it back down then rebend the pins. I did this but then put POLK AUDIO logo's over the Blose logos!

Passenger side wasn't as bad so I went the lazy way, stuck a tooth pick behind the Bose emblem then broke it off, leaving just enough prevent it from rattling but not be visible.

Well I glued it. It's too bad that I have to reassemble to verify that it will work.

Thanks

Black silicone glue. Just a dab is all you will need. You can "press form" it around the backside of the emblem with your fingers and wipe the excess away.
Easy
