Default 2014 lid rattling

Pretty satisfied in minimizing my 2014 saddlebag lids rattling from the 6x9 speakers beating. My 4 6x9's and horns faces the wheel.

I just wrap some electrical tape around the metal tabs and I need to take a little tape off it's a hard to push the lever down .And I always lock them also that keeps the rattling down also.

You run your wiring like that? On top of the bag edge and just close the lids on top of the wiring?

Looks to be notched for the wiring. Still, I'd put a bit of rubber trim around the cut out.
