Another known issue is the rear side glass coming lose. The glass has screw(s) sealed in it and it can back out causing the glass to rattle over time. This happend to my 08, dealer fixed it with new glass panel, driver side.
Easy enough to check, simply tap on the glass from the exterior and see if it makes a tap noise.
Noises are tough to chase down and often can be sourced to no where near the place your ears tell ya!

This is a long shot but it happened to me. I noticed a rattle which I could have sworn was coming from the rear seats but it turned out to be the engine hood. There are adjustable screws, one on each end with a rubber pad(stopper); in my case, one end was tighter than the other which was causing part of the hood to rattle a bit. Adjust the screw(s) to get a tighter fit between the hood and base; might be worth a try.

My 997 GT3 had an interior rattle coming from the rear. It was the long trim panel at the base of the rear window. Every once in a while I had to get back there and push on it to make sure the clips were fully seated.
