Decided to tackle some trim rattles from the front of the car which have popped up over past few months and begining to annoy me. Removed this lot which has gotten rid 98% of the rattles from the front:

It seems something in the sunvisor has broken down over time and the rattles seems to eminating from within the visor, rattles are more noticeable when they are lowered down, I think only the driver side is affected, not sure what to do about it, new they are around 100€ each!
On the dash trim it seems the air vent far left has had some point been taken apart, probably when the tracker module was fitted behind the vent duct and they didn't do a good job when they put it back to together again and have broken some clips causing it to be loose and rattle around.

Tomorrow I'll try gluing it to together and maybe putting some foam padding on the back side of the trims to cushion it against the dash. Will check then if the car stays rattle free as it is now without these pieces in the car.
For the final rattle which occurs only over certain types of bumps or other irregularities in the road, I am thinking it might have something to do with the glovebox or that area. Might need to remove it and see if it makes a difference.
