Ticking noise around the door/window

[Ford blue blood]

I thought there was a thread addressing this issue but couldn't find it. So here is my fix for the noise.

It was a slight ticking noise when moving down the road. Little bumps, just seams in the road, most anything that made the suspension work caused the noise. Found out by putting pressure on the trim item at the front of the door right above the door panel the noise went away. Popped that bad boy off, added small foam around the clips, put it back on and the annoying ticking noise is gone. Just pops off with my fingers, no tools required.

Best shot, it is about 8 inches long top to bottom.

Thanks, thought that was it. My rattle appears to be glass and only when fully up to about an inch down. I am still troubleshooting but I'll pop that off tonight.

That's the mirror access panel cover. I've put butyl rubber sound deadening on it increasing its mass, as well as thinner variants around its mounting points. No rattle w/ subs.
