You can usually shim them with some plumbing tape or electrical tape. It should only take a tiny amount
The fitment of many demist shields to eye cup retaining rings has never really been perfect as they are a press fit, and depending on how many times they have been removed and inserted they will rattle. Even new ones can rattle. It's basically cosmetic/non-issue unless they start falling out. |

Teflon Tape sounds like an easy fix. Thanks. |

Another option are the screw in Nocturn Industries lens protectors. We currently have them in stock . You can find them on our site by going to "brands" and then "Nocturn Industries".
If you decide to order, please know they are sold individually so you'd need to order 2. |
