Could be this. I remember going to open my trunk and heard a clunk.. like the piece where you push to open the trunk "fell out of place". I never got around into going under there.. trunk still opens but thats when I started hearing my rattle..
Other possible areas it could be is the bolt holding your sub/spare in isnt in all the way, but looks like youve checked there..

good idea, will check that, is it hard to get the rear panel off? I also checked underneath and looked at the fog light didn't seem to be that either.

No, removing the rear panel is quite easy and straight forward. Just check the DIY section for removing the rear bumper. It'll guide you step by step on how to remove the rear panel within the rear bumper removal instructions. You can also Youtube rear bumper removal. It helped me remove every single panels in the rear hatch with ease.

Removed the rear panel and lined it with weather stripping to see if it makes it any better but still the same sound.. very frustrating lol IMG_5978.JPGIMG_5979.JPG
