I used to have a similar problem, the spoiler on my hatch was a little bit loose and it rattled quite a bit. After tightening the bolts up, my hatch was nice and quiet. Check and see, maybe it will help

when you say glass, do you mean the rear hatch? if so mine does the same. i believe it's either the shocks for the rear glass or maybe the weather stripping is too old and no longer plush to keep the glass in place. i'll check tonight

my rear bumper support came loose on one side and my muffler rubs against it... it's really loud! cars pull up next to me like "WTF!?" and assume my car is a piece of **** and then i smoke them.

try to pin point the problem by physically pushing down on the parts that could make such a noise. if you do that and the noise goes away you've found the culprit. take it from there. good luck!

my rear hatch glass used to do the same... what i did was open up the rear wiper "black box" and repositioned the "hook" that gets locked... now the hatch glass closes as soon as you drop it, it locks very nice and the glass has no movement in it so there are no noises...

to elimiate interior noises, I put some tape on the inside of those "plug" thingies that lock the interior trim... i just put tape and pluged them back in.. eliminates all noises... i did this in a few places only where the noise was annoying but i have to strip it sometime and do it to all plugs..

for the dash, you can use tape or something soft so that vibrations don't cause any noise... i mean it's plastic after all and hard objects create a lot of noise under vibration... gotta put something soft in between

i put a lotta **** in my glove box and under vibration all that stuff in there makes annoying noises... my solution would be to glue something soft on the inside of the glove box so stuff doesn't cause as much noise

i know that was hard to read but do your best!

good luck!
