Default Rattling under dash?

Has anyone had any rattling noises under the dash? Or, at least it sounds like it is coming from under the dash. I read another thread about rattling around the door, and I have that at times as well. I'm going to work on that tomorrow.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with rattling noises around the dash area.

Thanks!

I have a rattle around the dash area as well. It only occurs when I'm stopped for awhile. For example at a light or something. Never when I'm actually driving. I'm not sure what it is.

Dash rattles are always a nightmare. Sometimes, taking the thing apart will only result in something else coming loose and taking it apart isn't easy.As the car gets older, it will exhibit more and more rattles and cold will aggravate the situation. Most people just live with it. If it's not something you can reach easily, it'll end up driving you nuts if you can't learn to ignore it.
