I heard a rattling between the back seats and rear window this cold morning whenever the car on rough road. It sounds like something lose in there, could be the rear window shade ...

Does anyone know the instruction to open up that "shell" to check what is losing inside there ? My back seat is not the fold down version and I have the rear window shade option. There must be something (screw/nut, clips) holding the shell in place.

Thanks,

If you're referring to the rear "parcel shelf", then the following post might help (or discourage) you:

Also, if you seach for pacel shelf, you'll see many threads discussing various rattles and remedies...
