Annoying rattle in seatbelt assembly

Has anyone experienced rattling in the driver seatbelt assembly? I noticed that the plastic cover attached to the door frame is very cheap and hollow. I tried to adjust the height of the seatbelt but the rattling continues. Very annoying.

Two options:
have dealer look at it if it's still under warranty - that's what they're for

or -

it's either the cap is messed up, or the torx screw underneath is loose. First, make sure it's not the cap. If it's not, then take a flathead, pop it off, and check the screw to see if it's loose.

It shouldn't rattle, though.

Also, make sure it isn't the sunroof. When my pano-roof creaks, it sounds like its coming from the seat belt anchor.

Mine has been doing the same thing for at least 6 mos. When I push on the plastic cover, the rattle stops. I'll have the dealer look into it when I get my sunroof fixed.
