Rattles!!!!

I want to do something about them. I've had enough. Here are rattles and squeaks coming from these locations.

-Driver's headrest ticks
-Passenger door vibrates over rough pavement
-Passenger side air vent ticks
-Dash rings over rough pavement (fusion2007 said it is coming from under the vehicle, I'll check it out).

Anyone have a diagram of the screws and bolts located around those areas?

Hey. It is not the cats that are loose that you guys are talking about but the heat shields around them. It happens to every car sooner or later that they rust themselves loose. I have done this dozens of times my self you just bend off the heat shield once they get loose on one side then the noise is gone. I believe they are there if you happen to park over tall dry grass or leaves so it won't cause a fire since the cats do get crazy hot!
