Interesting to hear the scorpion causes it as well. The sportex I have on mine does the same.

That rules out the exhaust then so my thoughts are the rear floor area and the section under the drivers feet.

Tried packing out under the steering wheel badge with blue tac ?

Apparently this works with aftermarket downpipes with differing metal grades that give off vibrations.
