2000 4Runner Rattle Rattle...help!

[UrsaAmericanus]

Hi all,

Got a 2000 4Runner. Last few days I've been blasting the radio, but decided to turn it off today, and discovered the following rattles:

A) When accelerating hard, I hear a rattle from what seems to be the passenger side dashboard, near the airbag?

B) Also when accelerating hard, I hear some sort of rattle coming from either the undercarriage or near the firewall? A very metallic sounding rattle. It dosen't happen all the time. But when it does, it occurs whenever I accelerate hard, and stops after a split second.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

remember to check the glove compartment for that passenger side airbag thing.
