Giving it another listen today with someone else driving, the sound
seems to be coming from just between/below the front seats. It's
pretty loud on either side, but seems loudest right in the middle
(although that's where it's easiest to get an ear on it, too...).
Since I already replaced one of the front bearings with no change,
maybe it's just road noise? I wonder why it seems so loud.


Argh.
