Find a safe road and have somebody lay down and ride in your hatch to better locate the source of the noise. The only one I am familiar with is the headliner rattle which I believe I am getting myself, but have yet to fix. If it does end up being the headliner then refer to Schrute's journal on how to fix it, he provides very good DIY's.

Ok so I took your advice and jackpot! I just had my friend at work drive me around while I was stuck in the back and it turns out the metal latch on the hatch near the tail light that holds the hatch closed was the culprit. I could not locate the sounds at first because of the echoes but I noticed it stopped if I pushed up hard on the hatch glass. We pulled over and popped the hatch and looked around and I noticed that wiggling the hatch latch

made the same noise. I'm going to Home Depot to get a set or Torx wrenches. After removing most of the stuff in the back I'm thinking about doing some sounds deadening myself now.
