Annoying rattle in driver side door

I've been having this terrible rattling/buzzing noise coming from my driver side door lately. Has anyone dealt with this before and what solved it?

I haven't encountered that one yet but i've got so many rattles in my car I just stopped caring. Just gotta embrace the lifestyle or turn the music louder.

^ lol true.

I initially created my first rattle by installing an exhaust that was causing the vibrations. After changing the exhaust, the vibration went away. At least for a bit.

I've recently had a new rattle creep up that occasionally um rattles, but is not entirely consistent.

As above stated, I supposed you just get used to hearing them and you can always turn up the music, lol.

Our cars are like hollow boxes, you get the creaks and weird sounds because it's like the frame is too boxy. I dunno.

Check the super thin plastic cover for the window switches it creaks and what I did was cut the majority of it off and I have no rattle

^x2 maybe its a door clip or something just loose.

I solve most of my rattles like that with air conditioner foam tape you can get for like 2 bucks at ace hardware.
