I used to have an 86 hatchback that did the same thing but I actually had 5 separate rattles. Rear shock absorber mountings needed to be tightened up. Then I found golf balls under the rear seat. Then a loose spare tire and tools in the trunk. The shelf itself rattled on one side and some tiny pieces of sponge rubber cured that and my seat back had a little slack where it latched on one side and a little rubber wedge cured that. You just have to experiment.. Took a few weeks but it turned out great. It helps to have someone ride in the back seat or trunk as you trace it down. Try it with the shelf out and seat folded down, etc. Hope this helps.
