It's located next to the heated rear window button... just kidding. Some of the older XJ Cherokees has noisy hatch trim... the common fix was to replace the fasteners or screw it in place. This was simple because the XJ hatch used to be fibreglass... not sure on a '97 GC though. -Brian |

Turn down the speaker volume? :) Look on the left and right sides of the hatch, just above where the lamp cutouts are. There are some rubber bumpers that can be adjusted in/out. Also check every screw, the panel tends to loosen with time. -- DougW |

To get into the thing, you'll need a factory service manual [don't waste money on Chilton] and a few torx drivers. -- Now that Spirit Rover has confirmed the presence of weapons of mass destruction on Mars, we are preparing to invade... |
