That being said, I still have speaker rattle. I'm not entirely sure what is actually rattling. I've never looked into fixing the issue as it only happens rarely for me, and only when the music isn't very loud.

My speaker rattle, I believe, comes from the dash speakers.

I noticed it when my music is VERY loud and there is low, droning bass (for instance the Manson Song - Kinderfeld, really makes the speaker rattle like there is loose change in it) I listen to my music at volume settings of 30-45 so I listen to it pretty loud. I have my stock unit set to the FEEL setting with Treb and Bass at Max.

The rattle was always there, and could be remedied by pressing my leg against that speaker whilst driving, however, today whilst driving to work, the rattle became REALLY evident and seems to be louder and looser sounding than it was previously.

I know that the general consensus here is that it's the window switchboard plate underneath those parts.

How easy is it to remove the door panel and how easy is it to put back with it looking as if nothing happened?

You see my fear is that when you remove things and start mucking with them, other things become loose or don't sit quite right and I HATE that. I'm pretty anal retentive but then again probably overly paranoid. I'm new to the car tuning world and I do want to learn but....you can understand my apprehension on this.
