So what I did find looks to be an extra speednut right there, that does seem to be loose and potentially could cause the buzz. But before I remove it - what is it?s purpose? It does not hold up any part of the trim or anything else as far as I can see.


Any ideas? TIA!!
It's been a while since I have been back there but I think you are missing the tab from the right side of the console tunnel. A plastic tab appears to be broken off that joins the right side. You can see the jagged edge where the the tab once was. That a common broken part and to replace it you need to replace the whole side of the passenger console. Since that's where you think the vibration buzz is coming from I suggest putting a put a small strip of the handgun cutout foam in there and button everything up. Or find a replacement with an unbroken tab. The good news are these are not ZR-1 specific but difficult to find with that tab intact. They break easy if anybody services the radio in the cars lifetime. And chances of that happening in a 30 plus year car are high. When these do come up for sale they are normally sold in pairs. (Each side) Good luck.
