Jeeziz you're kidding me with this post right? electrical tape & paper towels is your best suggestion to stop rattling? What happens if he starts stuffing paper towels in his door panels and low and behold it rains... soaked paper towels can be a short circuiting hazard...or worse.

Dude... simple sound deadening material can be used... look into peal&seal from home depot, raamat, dynamat xtreme..to be used on vibrating metal panels... if you have plastic panels that are vibrating.. try some 3M #77 spray glue and some carpet padding and apply on the underside of the plastic panel to provide some sound cushioning.
