Couple of thing from my 87 900T which I have tracked down:
The clips on the underside of the floor behind the rear seat, they get bent and allow the floor to rattle/squeak. I ran electrical tape around the slots they clip into to prevent this.
The back seat 'hinges' that it pivots up on come a little loose and allow seat frame to rattle, also the bar can rattle in the 'C' clamps. I bent the clamps a little to be snug.
One which was really hard to track down because I thought it was a rattle in the door....the trim outside of the pass window on trailing edge of window frame was loose and at hiway speed would 'flutter' sounding like a rattle. Reattached with a dab of silicone under the trim.
Tighten all fasteners on front seat frames and trim, a lot can rattle with hiway movement or even a slightly out of round/balance issue with a wheel/weight, etc.
Tighten every stinkin' fastener you can find!!
Enjoy the quiet....
