The fix looks impossible since I live in Lebanon, I have one of only three GT86s (no BRZs here yet) in the country and the dealers are clueless. Any ideas on what I can do to fix the problem? Will applying weight from the top or pressure from the bottom help in anyway? Can you give any additional information on the exact sources of the problem?
Sorry for all the questions, but I can't turn off the music in my car because when I do hear it, it drives me nuts.

It drives me nuts too. I understand how you feel.
I keep searching for this issue. I find a several people who are attempting to fix this issue on their own, but I still don't find anyone who was successful. This issue seems to be becoming a hot issue beyond Japanese owners now. I'm pretty sure they will come up with a formal bulletin in Japan soon. Then I hope that gets distributed to Toyota across the countries. Your dealer then should be aware of this, I'm thinking.
As of now, I'd say it's not something anyone can fix on their own. I wouldn't try to fix it on my own because if it's that easy, someone would've done it by now. I will post updates on my first post as I find anymore information.

Also check that your seats are fully locked in place. My rear latches weren't and it clicked. Close it back up and it's all good.

Thanks. I already listed on my first post that the noise gets sharper with the rear seats down. But I should still add your point to my list of symptoms.

I have this clicking sound, too. I checked my rear seat to see if it was fully secured and it was. Looking forward to a TSB on this one.

Yes, I can't wait for the TSB too.
