I had a slight rattle coming from this area. It was underneath the dashboard on the passenger side, under and behind the glove box.
There's a cover down there that is surprisingly flimsy in the back right corner. I applied a bit of foam insulation to help keep it still and that's seems to have resolved the problem. |

Check that its not just the passenger seatbelt buckle rattling against the pillar.
Was a common cause on the E90 for passenger side rattles that were hard to find

There is a product called Dynamat that I used to get rid of a rattle in my E46 once... Much denser than foam...

I am having a passenger side rattle right now but it seems to come from the B pillar or rear passenger door. Of course since I am driving, I can't locate it...and my wife doesnt even notice it when she's in the car. But like most of these things, once I heard it, I couldn't unhear it.
