    A bunch..and no build thread!
    Is there anything in the glovebox? I know it seems like a stupid question, but I had a similar issue and it was just a pen light bumping around in the glove box.

    I’ve had noise from the plastic door in the back of the glove box that gains access to the cabin air filter. I added sticky felt to it to quiet it down.

    While I didnt hear anything in your video, take a sock and push it between the passenger side tweeter grill and the windshield. They are a problem area for noises.

    hmmm, if its not that part then you might need to have someone else drive while you root around in the front to find the noise.

    I heard it. You have to turn your sound way up. You have anything installed back there?

    Only thing is aftermarket fogs i have some racks installed but the noise predates the racks. I rattled the fogs trying to recreate the noise with no luck

    I have a similar noise in my truck. I think it has something to do with the passenger side speaker grille rubbing against the A-pillar plastic cover. Mine's intermittent, but annoying nevertheless.

    That doesn’t sound like the A-pillar/speaker rattle. I think something else is going on there. I could be wrong and I hope I am. Wish I could be more help.

    That sounds more like the engine splash guard rattle on my 4Runner. The plastic clips that secured the rubbery engine splash guards in the wheel wells loosened up and sounded very much like that. It took much searching by many people until someone finally traced it to the wheel wells. It sounded like it was coming from the dash. I was able to recreate the squeak by wiggling the splash guard. I fixed mine with Gorilla tape, others bought new clips or used double sided tape between the rubber guard and the frame, to tighten things up. I don’t recall hearing of this issue on the Tacomas but it might be worth a look. Here’s a pic from the 4Runner forum.
