Nice post Bill!

I have a rattle inside my passenger side door, in your experience do you know what this could be? I would hate to have to take it to my dealer for this. I don't mind getting my hands dirty and taking the door panel off.

Some 2005-2008 Mustang vehicles built before 8/2/2007 may experience a buzz/rattle from the door panels when using the radio/CD player at elevated volumes or bass levels or voice broadcasts. This may be due to the window switch bezel vibrating against the door trim panel.
there is a TSB# 07-17-6 which deals with this problem.

Just did a search on this issue which brought me to this thread...

My '09 has major buzzing in the driver's door panel. I can't take it anymore. Do I just disassemble the panel and root around for what may be the problem? I've never done this work before and I don't know what to look for besides what was posted above. Sorry for such a rookie question...
