Default Crazy rattle comming from dash...HELP!!!

I cant take it any longer!! I have been trying to figure this out for about a week now. It sounds like my car has too much bass and the pannels are shaking...only its the dash and I dont have too much bass. It happens when I am on a bumpy road or i hit a small bump in a flat road. It happens around corners and even just out of no where when it has no reason too why!!!
HELP!!

If its not that check your visor. I removed mine b/c of a small rattle that drove me nuts! Never used them, haven't missed them!

It is the rear view mirror. It still happens even with the Broadway mirrors. No big deal. Just adjust it.

Think this is the first one I got right!!! Glad I could help. I am going to apply silicone caulk to the ends that go into the holes - and see if that fixes the rattle. I like the visibility better without the visors, but like to keep the car in one piece...
