Default figure out this noise :D

on the expressway, around 50-60 mph i get this metal sound. almost sounds like pins dropping on the floor or conduit rolling around on the floor. its pretty faint, but annoying nonetheless. it only happens around 2K rpms too. what the hell could this be? it sounds like its coming from the dash area...either under the car in that spot or in the dash or maybe a hamster stuck somewhere <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> my exhaust all looks pretty tight.
