There is a bit of info in this thread.  It is for the passat, but should be similar, probably the same location for the screws.

Brilliant!! Had this rattle on and off since I had the car -Just used to turn the tunes up! Now I'll have a go at that. I have the sunroof fitted  - wonder If that makes them more prone to rattle?
Thanks for the info :smiley:
