Had this rattle for a while now,

started off as annoying but music up u cant hear it its now sounds really bad, basically if i hit a speed bump/pot hole or if im reversing with the wheels at an angle when i engagethe clutch its rattles!

Sounds like its coming from the dash, behind light switch?? I looked in engine bay but couldnt see anything, my bfo cone was thought ot be culpret but ive secured that and it cant be that!

Any ideas? common probs? I know you cant hear it or see my car but any ideas? It sounds like if u dropped a tube onto a hard floor? kinda lol
