Default YEA I FINNALY found a rattle

Ok for some of us we have no idea what ppl are talking about or how irritating the rattles can be, center dash/b pillar seat belt thingy. So heres my story...

Normally when i drive i play the radio loud so of course i expect to hear something rattling. For the past month now i've noticed that even at lower volumes *bass at 3/non-ML, no sub/amp* there would be a rattle comming from passenger side. This of late has started to drive me crazy, at high lvls yea ok but at low lvls too? Yesterday i finally figured out where its comming from.

Passenger door pop-out side pocket when closed. When i pop it open theres no problem only when its in the 'flush' position.

Today i will be tryin to figure out a way to stop it, at least i now know where its comming from and can try to find a solution to remedy it. Course i can always leave it open

Can you post a pic of what you're talking about llamaboiz? I think i might have the same problem too, rattles come from the passenger side. Also, this morning i notice if i tap on the roof near the rear-view mirror, the rear view mirror rattles. Does anyone else notice that and what is the fix for it.
thanks,

Kuki

I found one last nite, too. But it's more like a squeak where the dash meets the front windshield, forward of the instruments. And, I DID turn the radio up...

Hmmm, maybe you should give the 'rattle' back to the baby or lil' girl that you took it from . . . (sukebe)
