So this noise just developed i cant pin it to anything yet, its a very high pitched noise sounds like its comming from the glove box, i thought it was speaker wine from a bad ground but its not its with the radio on or off and usually around 2k to 2200 rpm. It is 100% not a rear end whine.

Check for vacuum leaks from the vacuum hoses to the heater controls.
 






We have the same thing I think on our 2009. Seems to be mostly when there are high winds. Would love to know what this is.
 






Check your black trim weatherstripping around the windshield... Had a similar noise where one end of the strip was flapping in high winds. The offending piece was maybe 1/2" of loose trim. Mine was on the side.
