I've developed an annoying rattle from the dashboard (nearside base of windscreen pillar). Initially thought it was the tweeter cover but after removing this and the speaker the rattle remained.

I've managed to temporarily stop it by wedging a folded car park ticket into the corner between dash and pillar but would like to get views and any guidance on how easy it is to remove and refit the dash.

Many thanks

Martyn

I had this on the drivers side but slightly lower down near the bottom of the A-pillar.
Bad news is I took it to the dealer and they fixed it so I can't give you precise fix instructions.
Good news is they didn't remove the dash to do it.

What difference does removing the A-pillar cover make (and driving the car)?

Where is the SE are you?

I've managed to get a strip of rolled up felt wedged in the gap between the dash and the pillar cover - test run last night thinks I might have solved it. smile

I'm in Crawley - just off the A264
