dashboard
does anybody have a diagram of the dashboard interior?
I have a rattle in the dash that sounds like a plastic rod or a stiff cable (antenna??)hitting something. Occurs only when going over a rough road or bump
Lexus dealer is guessing there was a bulletin out but could not confirm.
To duplicate the sound take a pencil or even your fingernail and gently tap the table edge.
How could you look into the dash? Any way to take something off from the front of the climate control face without taking the whole dash out (big $)?

You can take that off and look around. Not too hard. There are good posts on this. Basically the console comes off first then work your way up. When you do that you might try gently stuffing rags in the dash to see if that makes the noise quit.

thanks for the tip. It looks taunting.
The noise is a rattle as if some of the braces are loose. I got an inside diagram of the inner parts of the dash.
Will see how this goes
Looks like the audio system and the dash vent system need to be removed.
