sounds suspension related lol

Have you checked everything that can move, speakers and surrounds?
checked in the boot for anything rattling around the wheel well, bulb come out of the cluster?
try taking the back seats down and see if anything is under there rattling around
pulling at straws really

when you are pushing on the plastic quarter in the back you can feel it creaking and the noise is very similar, just wondering before I take it all off if anyone had this problem and as able to say it blah blah lol, its defo 100% inside the car related, I havent long ago had coilvers fitted with new mounts etc etc.
i'll check the bulb thing as I havent tryed that then I'll ptt the rear quarter off, isit difficult to remove?
