Typically a vibration to create rattle is a harmonic inspired thing if specific rpm based. Meaning anything and anywhere on a car where there is unsupported extension of a source that can rattle the noise can happen. Any part that can line up in sympathetic vibration can make noise too. That means about 500 different parts on a car can do it.
You have to chase down the noise and location to figure out what to do to stop that sympathetic movement.
My Versa has vibrated to make noise at the glovebox, a door panel, heat shield underneath, a/c bracket, exhaust mount point, trunk lid, and will probably several others before it dies.
The condition of engine mounts can make that better or worse.
