The best solution I have found is blue tack. Stick some in the holes and then push the grille into it. it won't rattle around and it's easy to remove. I thought I'd bought some correct retainers but when I went to fit them I found they were wrong.

On mine a blue rawlplug (the one bigger than a brown) provided a solution. The plug is a push fit in the dash hole and the speaker grille pin pushes into the centre hole.

Have the same problem, going over bumps the grill jumps a bit.
I was going to try some grommets, but other jobs have been more pressing,
will check tonight.

Managed to find the grommet assortment,
and used a half inch blanking grommet, and pushed a flat blade screwdriver through.
It's a bit of a faff putting the grommet in, but it won't come out unless intended.
