Default Mystery Rattle?

Well two days ago my car started making a really weird rattle around 4,000rpm. i recently changed my throttle sensor earlier this week and so i thought maybe it would have something to do with that. but i looked it all over and its all fine. the noise is coming from it sounds like under the dashboard on the passenger side of the car. and i know its something inside the car cause you can't hear it in the engine bay only in the interior of the car.

Have any of you had any similar noises or rattles you could help me out with or any idea of what could cause it. like i said it only does it at 4,000 rpm. thanks.

raise the car, get under the car and let your friend step on the gas pedal- maybe you'll see what vibrates. For me, it was the cat's heatshield, good luck
