Something rolling around in my dash - Help!

My wife says it's coming from aroud the glove box. There is nothing inside the box to roll around and it's not muffled as if something is hitting a carpeted enclosure.

I hear it upon accelleration, decelleration, right and left turns. It sounds as if it's moving 6 inches or so. It's hard enough to make a good amount of noise - almost like a marble rolling around inside a compartment.

Anyone have thoughts on where I should look or what I should tear into?

Has anyone pulled their glove box - if so, does it provide access to much?

What is involved in pulling the passenger air-bag? Is that even a good suggestion?

BTW, nothing has dropped down a vent (that I'm aware of).

Thanks in advance for the help.

Rich
