I don't know, but that's not good. Sounds like your engine.

I can't imagine anything under the dash causing that noise. I'd check and see if something in the engine compartment is hitting the firewall or maybe the exhaust is hitting.

the noise is not as loud as it seems in the video its just my crappy camera exaggerating it i will upload another video with a better camera next time but i know it is coming from the dash because you can not hear it from the outside and i opened up the engine bay to check and there is no noise

I had the same problem after replacing my headunit.. but the noise wasnt that bad.

Turns out some of the felt that nissan uses between the plastic panels got rubbed off. I just got some cheap stick on felt to put back between the panels and it took care of the rattles.
