dash board noise

I have a cricket noise coming from the passenger side from within the dash as it sounds, also a loose metal bracket sound to making a slower wabbling sound. Both are different sources because the sounds have been made consecutively at times. Anyone else with relative anoying noises?

my '97 sounds like it has a dry speedometer cable! the only problem is it doesn't have a speedometer cable. I have never found that one,
I also have an idler on my serpentine belt that sounds like a bull elk bugling, I am leaving that one until elk season

my door panel allways squeeks up against the door.. it probably hits 500 SPM (squeaks per minute).. but i just turn up the radio or roll down a window to block out the noise.

My whole freakin truck is a squeak. I don't even know where to start. The dash is annoying in several places and I think the rivets on the front crossmemeber are squeaking- heck frame articulation sounds like a machine gun
