Need more info.  In gear with the clutch pushed in?  In neutral?  Does the vibration go away while driving?

If the vibration is present when the clutch is disengaged (pedal down) then the transmission is decoupled (not being driven) and the problem is probably between the flywheel/pressure plate and the balancer.

It seems like 6Sally6 posted one time that he had a T5 with some slop in the input shaft.
Also, what kind of condition is the pilot bushing (or bearing) in?
As stated above, if it is either one of those it should stop vibrating when the clutch is pressed.
