Take the ashtray out, then there is a large screw to the right of the now empty ashtray openeing.
Then you can remove the radio surround, behind which there are two more screws to take out the plastic surround. Be careful to unplug all plugs before you pull it too far off. You installing a head unit?

No worries mate. Rattles suck in these cars, and they're a bastard to find, not that you wanna hear it...
Have you had it lowered? That causes rattles a lot of the time. I've got the really harsh metal-on-metal squeak that sets my teeth on edge. It crops up occasionally, but I can never find it. Gives me the s! Try tightening up every screw you can lay your hands on.... or just turn the stezz up a bit.
