Annoying rattle/noise A pillar

I'm getting this really annoying passenger side A pillar noise. I removed it the other day but couldn't find the source.

Basically it's one time noise, as if a cable is loose and is hitting somethings. Happen every time I would turn the steering wheel quickly.

Also happens when I hit certain bumps.

I really hope I don't have to pull the whole dash apart just for this.

Has anyone else experienced something similar?

I guess the only way to locate it is remove one piece at a time, go for a ride, come back and remove some more lol?

Are you sure it's in the pillar? I ask because it could be under the seat. See this issue https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1510053

Not 100% sure because I try to hear from the driver seat.

I'll have to get someone to drive my car... but it really sounds more from the front right.

Well, it's an easy check and you don't have to take anything apart. Also, check the glove compartment.
You might have something loose in there.
