Squeak, Squeak, Squeak!

I've managed to remove the trip that sits around the window in an attempt to fix the worst squeak ever! It was quite easy to do as it turned out - remove the screws for the sun visors (I also removed the 8-9 screws under the rubber seal, but not sure if this was necessary) and give em a good yank!

My question is, now the plastic is off, what can I do to attempt to stop the squeak. It seems now the plastic is off it's not squeaking anymore. Could it be where the pillar trim meets the top piece? if so, any tips of what to put in between?

Silicone grease ftw.
Fixed my squeaks in the same area, and Red Robin swears by it to!

You don't get much more trustworthy than a red robin! Thanks for the tip buddy. :thumbsup:

I put automotive felt tape in every location where plastic meets plastic. Also covered the insides with the felt tape. No rattles or squeaks since then.

Thanks fella. I'll do a Google on automotive felt tape. :thumbsup:
