Driver rear fender rattle?

Anyone experienced an annoying rattle near the drivers rear fender? It isn't cats...my secondary cats are gone anyways.

It happens in the 2-4k rpm range. Really vibrates around 3k. It sounds like it's inside the rear pillar or fender (quarter panel i suppose). Any suggestions before I start tearing it apart? Thanks!

Wuz up bro!!! I have the same problem but my issue is on the passenger side rear pillar. It makes noises every now and then and sounds like a loose cable or something hitting the body of the car. I pushed on the pillar and found a loose connection and just pushed it in but the noise did not go away. I have to take it apart to see what is loose but it doesnt seem easy.
