Just for the heck of it, ensure your exhaust system is to rubbing/touching any metal/bolts/parts of the frame.
I installed headers on mine and the resonator was touching the seat belt screws and God! the resonance was crazy, at 1,500 RPM the whole dash was shaking (kinda cool). The muffler shop heated the pipes and with a "come-along" he fixed the problem.
Check it out!

This sounds like the right idea. I dont think my exhaust is causing it because it is whisper quiet(sounds nearly electric) but I am getting the mufflers deleted on Monday. If you just ever so lightly set your finger on the vent, it stops completely. I am going to try the clear silicone this weekend. Thanks

pull the screws and on the back, cut some velco sticky kind, stick to holel on back of dash and screw back... was a tip on Vette mag or corvette mag, can't remember which one, did it on my old dash, and on all my new dash pieces, complete rebuild and no rattle or nose... cheap and easy...and it works.
