Annoying interior sounds after car warms up.

When my 2018 Autobahn is cold the interior seems very quiet/tight, but as the interior warms up ,and while say driving over a less than perfect road surface it sounds like someone is lightly tapping the windscreen (a tic-tic-tic sound).
It's not clear if it is coming from the dash itself - if I hunch over the steering wheel the sound does not get louder or get easier to locate - it really could come from anywhere and just reflect off the screen. I've tried open/closing the sunroof and pushing various interior trim parts - nothing seems to affect the sound..
Any ideas? It is sort of like fingernails on a chalkboard:) to me at the moment.

My lower mirror trim piece made a ticking noise on certain rough roads. Drove me nuts until I was able to locate it. Added some Tesa felt tape between trim piece and mirror casted base part and quiet it is.
