Running the heater makes the whole car shake

Today when I turned the heater on, the whole car started to vibrate/shake. I turned it off, and the shaking stopped. I turned it on and off many times, and sometimes the car shook, other times it did not. Another interesting point is that when I turned it off, it seemed to take a couple seconds for the HVAC system to "spin down," and the shaking/vibrating was at it's worse during the three seconds between the LCD saying the fan is off, and actually hearing the system stop.
Has anyone else experienced this before? What could it be? Loose bolt on the compressor? Please tell me this is an easy DIY fix.
