Inconsistent Ratlle

I am getting a rattle in the dash, passenger's side, in the vicinity of the airbag. It comes and goes, but when it comes, it's extremely annoying. Anyone else had this, and what's the cause?

Thanks!

I had this rattle, near the front passeger side air vent. It never went away. In the winter it got really irritating, in the summer it wasn't too bad (expanding materials??).

The only helpful advice I can give you at this point is to take EVERYTHING (sunglasses, change, CD's etc) out of the sunglass holder, console, side pockets ..... and have a friend ride with you and isolate where exactly the sound's coming from.

If it is comnig from the glovebox area .... I vaguely remember a member posting over a year ago that there was somethnig on the engine bay side that needed adjusting.
