Default Dash Squeak

So ever since i bought my truck it has had a terrible squeak coming from the dash i think. I have no idea if the guy before me took it apart and still had a couple of blots left over when he put it back. The dash seems firm nothing seems loose. If im driving up a bumpy street or just driving through a parking lit it does it. If im ever having to flex the truck out it really does it even worse. I have no idea what it is. Has anyone ever had this problem?

I actually just figured out that my drivers side fender was loose. The two blots next to the hood coil were loose and the whole thing was making noise. I guess it never hurts to shake every part of the truck!
