Default Fairing pouch vibration

Just installed a HD three pocket fairing pouch (58900-98B) on my 09 Ultra. Like the looks of the pouch but the only problem I have is that it vibrates and the pouch slaps against the windshield. Any ideas on how to stop this?
Thanks

I put a square of double sided tape between my pouch and the windshield.

I put a small piece of velcro on the corners and on the windshield. It helped.

Mine vibrates so bad it shakes the tobacco out of my smokes.

I wedged some black noeprene (wetsuit material) between the pouches and shield. Easy to remove when I wash the bike.

I used some 1" window sealer strip. It has the sticky crap on one side that i stuck 1 piece to each bag before i installed it. It has worked great so far. Got it at home depot. I have a dark windshield so you cannot see it. If you have a clear shield you may want to try to put it on the underside of the bags against the dash. That will help without showing through the shield. Did not stop the shakes but has helped a lot.

Mine will vibrate when I am sitting still but once I get going they seem to be really no problem....
