Ok let me start off by saying that this is a fix of one of the many possible locations of dash rattles. This basically only started when I added the motor mount so it might only apply to those with one. This fixed it for me and hopefully it will work for you as well.
The first thing you have to do is gather some stuff.
Most importantly you will need:
-Some sort of foam, probably minimum thickness of 1/4". I had some packaging egg crate type foam around so I cut that down to size.
-Screwdriver
-Double-sided tape
There are 4 clips that hold on the decorative dash piece and one hook-type clip at the end of it(by the door).
4 clips marked in red. 1 hook thingy in orangish.
Easiest way is to open the glove box and pull from here:
2 screws that hold on the center grille piece. (don't mind the foam already in there, this is a post install write up).
Unplug the hazard light connector:
There are 2 clips in the center of the piece and 3 in the back, pull up gently to get the 2 in the center popped free, and you can pull up and forward to get the back free.
The cut strips of the foam to cover these spots:
I put foam on the sides of the display screen so the decorative piece doesn't vibrate on it.
Also felt the center grille vibrated, so look at the back side of the piece you remove and place the foam in the spots it will make contact to the dash.
Too much foam could cause the piece to stick up further than the rest of the dash so only use what you need to and if it really hard to put pieces back on then you are using too much.
Button up all the pieces, make sure to connect the hazard light again. Make sure the tubes of the center grille are lined up when you put it back on. Push it back down to click the clips back in, screw it back down. Place the hook of the decorative dash piece in first, then push the clips in. Make sure the decorative piece slides into the center grille piece above the display screen, then push the last clip in.
Take it for a spin and see if it rattles still. Mine worked out the first time but if it doesnt and sounds like its still coming from that area, open it up again and make sure you have all the contact spots covered.
The whole process takes under 10 minutes and if you aren't a behemoth then you shouldn't break anything. So be careful with bending pieces too much and you should be fine.
