C-Pillar rattle 2006 LX sedan

So with subs comes rattles...
So far I've identified and fix several,inscluding:
License plate
Trunk
Rear Deck
Trunk Vents

Now there are still 2 rattles,one I only hear during 1 song,so it's not an issue,but the other is on most songs with a lot of bass and I can't figure out what it is...

It's right on the C-pillar.The rattle comes from the point where the soft roof panel meets the harder plastic panel on the C-Pillar(the one that has the airbag symbol on it)
If I press on the soft panel with a moderate amount of force it moves and the rattle goes away,but I obviously cant hold the C-pillar all the time.I've tried putting in foam strips between the meeting point of the two panels,but it doesn't stop it...it seems that only when the panel is pressed.

Anyone know how to fix it?I'm trying to create a rattle free car(as much as possible)

I think I found the culprit...
After taking off the panel I saw a metal bracket attached to the frame,I believe this to be rattling,but I'm not 100% sure...
Regardless,a small towel stuffed in behind the panel has solved the issue,and I now have a rattle free car
