The Idlestopper video on YT shows you had to remove the face of the center radio stack, but is there anything as far as getting the center speaker in the dash behind the infotainment screen off? Nasty rattle from that area.
[EDIT] Y'know, I should really look at the TSB section before posting new threads ... praise be to you EE4Life for posting this kind of stuff.
Looks to me that you can pull it off without even having to remove the radio face, or does it still need to? Can anyone confirm if this is the case or not?
[EDIT 2.0] Nope, radio face has to come off, easy enough. Hope I don't create more rattles.

Yea, just did it, it was pretty easy. Toughest part was actually the center speaker plastic itself. Thankfully had a plastic pry tool otherwise I don't think I could have gotten it. The front part is easy enough, but the part behind the infotainment screen is tougher. Of course, got it all off and nada. There's really nothing behind there that could rattle. Speaker is on there good, no loose anything. Using my wrist to knock around the dash, when I removed the plastic, I couldn't hear anything. Of course, once I buttoned it all back up, did the same thing and the rattle is back.
@leomio2.0 sorry for reviving this old thread, but were you able to find and resolve the rattle? I also have a rattle that sounds like it's coming under that plastic panel.
