[s-cars] UrS4 Instrument Cluster Rattle?

Gents,

My father replaced the instrument cluster illumination on my mother’s UrS4
and ever since then they have had a horrific resonant rattle coming from
the instrument cluster. He’s taken it out once or twice since then in hopes
of finding it but so far no such luck. I just came back from test driving
it as I’m in town for my mother’s birthday and it is literally bad enough
that I’d trade or sell my car if I couldn’t get rid of it. ;-)  (Then
again, I HATE rattles with a passion.) 

I did take it out and tried to shim the hinge on the bottom of the cluster
with a little cardboard in order to snug it up a bit but there was no
change so I think the culprit lies elsewhere.
