So I finally open the side airbag panel, seatbelt panel, door weatherstrip and I pull the headline a bit to expose the metal bracket.
But instead of cracking the panels, I opened the bolt and slip some thick tape between the panels.

Finally the metal tapping sound is gone!!
Does this sound like having a big drop of water hit the roof of the car?
If so, I think I have the same issue.

Was it easy to put the roof panels back together?
