Strange 'ticking' from passenger side??

This is a fairly curious problem - I have a strange ticking sound that comes from my passenger side interior. It typically always happens when I put my foot on the brake, but lately, it will ocasionally spontaneously click like 3-5x randomly. My mechanic friend thinks it's possibly a relay, but the only ones I know of are on the drivers side and the drivers side engine bay. The ticking sounds like it's comming from the passenger door hinge almost - and I don't have the bose amps in there any more.

tic

Geez. My car does the same thing but only rarely. Its a single loud tick from the passenger side door area, usually under braking. I learned to ignore it. But since it won't start anymore, it doesn't bother me.
