Tightening overhead switch panel

I'm chasing rattles in my 2013 ALL4 -- yeah, I know it may be a losing battle. One of the worst offenders was the window switch panel in the driver's door. I was able to tighten that. My next target is the switch panel above the rearview mirror but I don't see how to get to the mounting hardware. It's such a visible spot and there is so much wiring inside that I don't want to be too aggressive. Can anyone provide information on how it attaches? Thanks.

David

The cover pulls right out. Then there are 3 or 4 screws attaching it to a bracket above it.

Thanks. After seeing your message, I got the cover off easily and found 2 screws that attach the switch panel plus one that appears to attach the bracket to the roof. That rattle seems to be gone.

There's one obvious screw toward the rear of each front seat power window switch block. Is there another, more camouflaged, screw toward the front? I've looked but haven't found it so far.
