My Bullets look like they are stuck on with glue.  My kitchen is from
an 85 Westy.  I also am vexed by the rattles.  I recently did some
poking and looking and started to think that the rattle was actually
back in the hinges.  My rattle is not light metallic like it's the
drain board hitting something.  I have the latch that is in the top
of the stove, and it is missing parts so that it is just for show
now.  Could that contribute to rattling?
