    Wanted to say thanks for the tips to help problem solve my access cab door rattle. I think I got it. Upon removing the panel, I found two mashed fasteners and, interestingly, the semi-separate piece/panel that hides the seat belt retractor at the bottom corner wasn’t fully clipped into the larger door panel. (See attached pic) I would never have noticed if I didn’t take the panel off. The other possible source was the bracket at the top that “hangs” the panel on the door. It’s plastic and is attached with plastic rivets. I slid some felt tape under the bracket as a barrier between plastic contact points so it didn’t click when I wiggled it. I’m not sure which of these was the source of my rattle. Maybe a few things to check if your panel is rattling. Thanks again for the help.

    I know they slap these on in final assembly, but it seems that their technique is off?

    That is great that it worked out for you.
