Default Annoying rattle

Help! I have an irritating low speed rattle from behing the rear seats. It disappears when the top is folded away so is, presumably, somthing to do with the top mechanism.
If I pull off the trim in the boot I get to the petrol tank which doesn't help.
How do I get into the top stowage area?

Bummer - it's a suspension bush somewhere, I jacked up a wheel to have a look and it went away.

probably lower bushing, that's the most common noise from back there.
