Dashboard rattle
I have a 2005 95 with the Audio System 3 (may not be relevant to the problem). On uneven roads there is a rattling sound emerging from the left dashboard speaker, that is the sound comes through the grille, it is probably not the speaker itself that is rattling. As the car is a left hand drive, it is impossible to both drive and locating the source of the rattle at the same time. Has anyone experienced the same and found a way to get rid of the rattle without having to dismantle the entire dashboard?

I have heard some noise from my left dash speaker before but mostly when it is cold outside. Mine sounds like it is just below the grille so my best guess it's the speaker. Those grilles easily pop off and I think removing the speaker is pretty easy as well.
If you can't find it through the speaker hole, you may have to take off the dash panel and see if you can get to the source of the rattle. And yes, finding the source of a rattle can be very difficult while you're driving.
