Noise after in-cabin filter change

Changed the in-cabin filter a few weeks ago. I now have a rattle/noise coming fromthe glove box area. When I hear it as I drive and I open the glove box the noise stops. I do have a MusicLink POS cable that comes into the box but I don't see how it would make the noise I am hearing. Any ideas or thoughts?

you need to drop down the cover and look and see whats making the noise simple .

My wife's MDX had a rattle from the glove box after I changed the filter. Turned out to be the wheek lock key rolling around and hitting some other things in there. Unfortunately, I didn't realize it until I had the glove box sitting on the floor.

is it possible that not all of the three tabs holding the owners manual in place are not properly seated? Did you also make sure the filter holder is properly seated all the way so that both side tabs are engaged? Other than that, there really isn't anything else it could be.

Yes, those were the first items I looked at when this arose. I am beginning to think my MusicLink cable is making the noise since I had to reposition it to take out the filter. My next test will be to remove everything fromt eh glove box and test drive over some rough surfaces. Thanks to all for your help and suggestions.
