Ready to take on the universe

As the sun was out I took the opportunity to clean my Polo:

Over the last 3 days or so I've also noticed a rattle/vibration in the handbrake area but found it to be the passenger seat belt receptacle (RHD vehicle.) I might just try that micro-fibre cloth trick I read here earlier to see if that resolve the noise.
