Im assuming your talking about the lid rattling. I went to Ace and got some door weather stripping with adhesive on the back and put it on the inside edge of the top. no more rattle

The weatherstripping is a good idea. If that doesn't work, you should be able to adjust the catch on the latch

my box is cheap so the latches dont adjust so i had to go this route and it has the added benefit of making the box even more waterproof
