    Hi everyone,
    I posted a while ago. Seems like my thread got deleted. Just wanted to let anyone who's looking for answers know - if you have the proximity beepers installed on your Prius and you're experiencing a rattle from the driver side dash - I might know the root of your problem. It turns out the console for the beeping system came loose inside the dash and was jumping around inside my dash. To find it, remove the panel containing the hood lever (near the driver's left knee). It should pop off, you might need a plastic crowbar, or just take it to a shop. Then re-Velcro or tape that sucker down.

    That little box was the bane of my existence for too long, I hope this helps.
