Passenger side door rattle

Whenever I listen to any song with alot of bass and the volume turned up, each time the bass hits something in my passenger side door rattles. It sounds like plastic of some kind. Any ideas on what it might be or suggestions on where to start looking? Ive tried listening for it but with the loud music its hard to hear exaclty wear its coming from.

Yeah I've got the same issue. Because it's my driver's door though I can press on areas of the door to try and find it. Tried the plate behind the door handle too. No luck yet. If I don't find it soon I will have to shoot myself, it's driving me crazy.

Check the previous posts, a plastic panel behind the door handle has been causing rattles for some of us.

Check the rattles database; the last couple of pages. The power window switch area was causing mine to vibrate/rattle on base notes.

Same here. Something is alittle loose in that plate that has the power window button. I played a song w/ bass then held it with my hand and it went away.

I *had* the same problem on my car. On mine the problem was with the power window control panel. The power window switches snap into the plastic plate that attaches to the door and front part of the arm rest. When I cranked the stereo, it would shake the switches within the panel and cause them to rattle. I was able to stop the rattle by pressing down on the window switch panel. To fix it, I removed the panel and wrapped black electrical tape around the switches. I made several passes and pulled the tape tightly to keep everything securely in place. And by the way, I also had the door handle rattle on my passenger door. I drove myself nuts trying to find that one!
