'08 Acura TL - BUZZING noise/sound from dash/vent/ignition area (please help)!

I recently swapped my factory headlights with these - HALO / Angel eyes + CLEAR type. Take a look at my album here, they look tight. And converted my factory FOGs to HID... with ballast and everything. For the CLEAR turn-signal, I've put in v-leds.com's Type-1 dual color for switchback effect, which is installed properly with load resistors on each side.

Here's the problem, I'm hearing buzzing noise between ignition and middle-left vent area. Sometimes it feels its coming from behind the dash / instrument panel / vent / ignition. It is not consistent and not everytime. I hear it particularly during night times mainly. Specially, when I accelerate. I've managed to record a video:



NOTE: Please pay close attention to 37th seconds into the video (you might have to crank up your speakers to full volume). This is exact buzzing problem I'm reporting.

Also, you guys probably noticed sudden bang noise too, around 9th as well 13th sec into this footage. This I'm very convinced its to do with suspension / struts / coils / etc.? But just like the buzzing this type of major banging does not happen on a regular basis, ergo my dealer can't "duplicate" this F-ing thing...

Any help would be appreciated for either of these matters!

I listened a few times and could not hear anything. Anyone else hear the buzzing?

Here's another video (plz crank up your volume); you could clearly listen to this buzzing between 11th and 14th seconds:
