Got a rattle that i cant seem to find its origin. I seems to be coming from left and right side of the dash close to where it meets the windscreen. Manly over shit road, bumpy stuff, sound like plastic rattle i think

Please help I think im developing OCD over it.

clutch line
look for a metal hose/line right under your firewall in the engine bay. put a rubber hose around it or something to buffer it.

when that happens again when driving, step on your clutch, if the sound goes away, then it is your clutch line.

I tired it last night its not that. I stuck a piece of rubber that i cut of my cowl top(GruppeM install) in between the end of the dash and the windscreen and i havent heard it . most new cars have some foam stuff there anyway,
