    Greetings everyone...Happy Sunday to ya all !!
    Well, this is what I did. It worked for me, I don't know if it will work for you...BUT..here is what I did.;D
    You can proceed at your own risk...not that it will be a problem..I just don't want anyone yelling at me if things don't go as you want ;)
    They are not clicking now...give it a try if it is something that is bothering you.
    ..always room for improvement...

    Sweet solution, should save your cover too. The slap causes the cover to knock out the bumper through the cover.

    I am assuming by this thread you were having a noise issue with your new Koralia's?? I thought your wavemaker was a soft start?? Eliminating the problems of the PH's clicking or banging? I am very curious as I am looking for a wavemaker myself.:confused:

    Awesome DIY fix, after going through 2 sets of covers I will definitely be stopping by home depot.
