Default Rattling windshield pillar covers

2003 Honda Civic Hybrid.
This car is so quiet that the rattling from the windshield pillar plastic
covers is driving me nuts.
I thought there was something loose inside the pillar, like maybe an airbag
cable, but I've decided that it is the cover itself.
I complained about it on a service visit, but they couldn't reproduce the
noise ;-(
Now I can make it rattle by tapping against it with my fingers. It only
makes the noise under normal driving conditions at certain temperatures.
I'd like to glue or pad it, but I can't see how to remove the covers.
Is this simple, or should I take it back to the dealer?
