knocking noise when turning over the key. Noise coming from inside

What is your question?

When i turn my key to start my car a knocking noise occurs. The noise is coming from the inside of the car close to the dashboard behind the radio. The noise only occurs then does not occur when the A/C is turned on or off or while running.

How long has your 2008 Ford Mustang had this problem?
