Default mysterious knocks under dash

I notice that a knock can be heard from (presumably) within the dash that sounds to be originating from the area of stereo/gear knob. Doesn't have to be at high speed to occur and sounds like a decent clunk each time. 2000 fairmont ghia. happens when going over a bump or sudden change in road integrity. Any suggetions or experience with such annoyances?

Possibly the gearbox mount.
Maybe you should post this in the appropriate AU tech thread
