Help! Rattle in dash...left side near vent

Hey there, I have this annoying rattle that seems to come and go in the dash and I believe it's coming from the vent on the left side of the steering wheel. Anyone else experience this ? Is there something that is known to come loose ? Any recommendations on how to get to it without ruining the vent or dash or both ?

Thank you !

I want to say there was a TSB about a rattle around the gauge cluster. Might want to look into that first and see if that solves the problem.

I had something like that when I first got my car at the end of August, and it would get worse with real bass-y things playing on the radio. Finally they found it was inside the driver's door, down low. It sounded for sure like it was coming from up higher, but that's where the dealership finally found it and fixed it, added foam or something in there. No rattles since

Hey thanks for the replies...definitely nothing in that change holder or the eye glass holder. Sounds crazy but it seems to only rattle in the winter and if I hit the area (near the change holder) hard it will stop...almost like I'm lodging something that comes unlodged if you will...I'll do the search recommended and see what I find. thanks again.
