Big dash rattle, more of a knock

Howdy,
After a long section of very rough and rocky dirt road in our poor '97 900s with 116K (automatic trans...aack), it developed a substantial knocking sound in the dash. It seems to be coming from behind the instrument panel. It sounds almost like wood or plastic knocking together, almost like knocking on a kitchen table, but a more hollow sound. It knocks when we hit bumps or rough pavement. Any ideas? I thought I heard/read somewhere about a cabin HVAC hose/vent that can come loose, but I couldn't find the post.
I'm not that worried about it since we're ditching the car in the next 6-12 months or so (but I say that about every 6 months). Would be nice to fix it, but I'm afraid to take apart dashes, and there's no way I'm spending money on it!
Thanks folks!
