Advice I've heard to do is buy a new OEM bushing to replace the ISIS one and it will eliminate the slight rattle. I've had mine for a little over a year; The side to side movement when you first buy it is very minimal. After a year I've noticed that it has probably a 1/4 to 1/8th of a inch of play side to side. Now I have not replaced the bushing but I will be in the future and will let you know if it fixes this issue. I'd go B&M if you have the money.

IMO, I don't think the lack of a rattle is worth 100 bucks.
