Have always had a rattle up front and while reinstalling radio I found the culprit. There are three screws that are just loose in these holes that don’t seem to bite on anything. These are at the bottom near the A/C vents.
Anyone else ever have this and figure out a work around?

Hard to say without knowing what the bar is supposed to be attached to. Anyway you can see the underside?
Have you removed the screws and looked carefully at them? I sometimes find loose screws and the screw threads themselves have worn down due to vibration over the miles. Sometimes a new screw will bite. Sometimes I go up one screw size.

Can't see underneath without tearing up the entire lower dash where all of the air ducts connect. It's like there is also a little metal box that shields that area as well that you can see the outline of. I'll try the one screw up thing. Creates a heck of a rattle at times, but also is providing almost zero structural support if something were to hit the windshield in the center like a turkey, etc. I mention a turkey as my dad once had one end up in the cab of him semi. Was almost a really bad situation.
