Default Trunk Vibration!!!

Does anyone else have a trunk vibration when slowing down or down shifting? My Z is driving me crazy. Everytime I come to a stop the trunk vibrates like if my trunk latch is loose. I check it and it all seems to me in good working order. So I have no idea what it could be.
Help!!!!

my brake lines vibrate against the lower portion of the trunk. Its random, and sometimes doesnt do it for weeks... lol just need to get under there and put something in between them.

No trouble on mine so I'm guessing. Theres nothing inside the trunk other than the CD changer. If it is the latch you can wind up the pressure on the rubber stops on the lid which would take up any slack.

Are you sure it's not the muffler vibrating or is it definitely inside??
