Passenger door raddle and squeak coming from around speaker

Hey guy!
I have a 2013 BRZ Limited with 20k on it.
Since I got it I have been hearing a squeak or raddle from the door/speaker area.
When the passenger puts minimal pressure on the speaker grille the sound goes away.
Does any one have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Pop the grill off and tighten the spaker screws. They could just be lose or the grill itself could have an issue.

Its the window switches themselves. If you pop the doorcard and unscrew the switches, you can take them right out and see part of the window switch moving around from the underside. A little foam stuffed in the grooves fixes it completely.


As a side effect, you will likely notice a big improvement in sound quality.

I didn't even know raddle was a word. But I'm sure you meant rattle.

Well played!
Subtle yet effective.

thanks!

I'm not sure what/where to look for window stitching.

Could you give me a quick run down as to how I could accomplish this?

That post has enough info to get you to the switches. 4 screws hold the switch on. Once you have the switch out its easy to see where to put the foam.
