Interior rattle after having windscreen replaced.

Now I'm not saying the interior never rattled before, as it does...All the time!!! Anyway, just went for a drive with the radio off and noticed the passenger side A-pillar interior cover is now making a slight knocking noise.

I can't put 100% blame on the autoglass fitter as I quickly removed my dashcam wiring before he turned up and I never noticed it on my drive to work yesterday as the roof was down.

Can the interior covers be removed easily? I've never had it off before. I stuffed the dashcam wiring down the side of it, so it was hidden, albeit not perfectly.

A quick Google image of the cover I'm referring to:

Yep, fairly straightforward. You have to remove the horizontal trim piece above the windscreen first - do this by removing the sun visor screws and it will all just unclip (interior courtesy light just pops out easily with a flat blade).

With the top trim removed, the side trims just pull out and upwards. They are just on the usual crappy clips.

I found using the 'furry' part of self adhesive velcro the best thing for squeaks and rattles.
