Weird Rattling Sound

Hey guys. Ive recently been hearing this retarted rattling sound. I think its my exhaust. I dont think its hitting against the body or anything like that. I think it might be the exhaust manifold or my headers. Please gimme your input

If I had to guess...
It is more then likely the heat shield above your cat converter. Everyone that has a 96-00 Civic will have it rattle eventually. The bolts rust and fall apart and the shiled will start to rattle. I just cut mine off and no more rattle.

Take it to Speedy Muffler of one of those places that does free inspections. They can probably tell you what it is.
