I finally figured out what was rattling in the passenger side comfort seat - it was driving me crazy.

It's the front cover to the seat rail. All I needed to do was snap it back in place, but I'm not sure how long it will stay quietly in place if it was loose already. It may need some assistance (glue) to remain rattle-free.

It's always gratifying when you find/correct a rattle or squeak!
