First of all, please use your caps button - your message comes across as
shouting in ones face.

Next, I presume that you don't mean that the entire *luggage* platform is
vibrating - that would mean you need to put the screws back in all the way.
:)

If you mean the rubber bulb at the front edge is vibrating - then what you
should do is loosen the front screws a little bit.  Use a flat blade, such
as a putty knife with rounded corners, or a kitchen knife, or some such, and
tuck the bulb part up under the edge so that you conceal as much as
possible.  Do this all the way across the front.  Hold the luggage top down
while you tighten the screws back up to 'captivate' the bulb part inside.
