Annoying rattle

Argh! I've got this tiny yet horribly annoying rattle that I'm trying to eliminate. It's coming from where the door panel meets the dash, right up by the curved part around the left air vent. There is an incessant "ticky ticky" noise nearly all the time, unless the car is standing still. I can stop the noise by jamming my finger between the dash and the door, but that kind of elminates some of the fun of driving the 8

Anyone else ever have this particular squeek? If so, how did you fix it? I'm considering applying some thick weather stripping between the two pieces to apply some pressure to the panel when the door is closed. But it takes quite a bit of pressure with my finger to stop the rattle, so I'm not sure if the weather strip would be enough to work.
