I have trouble with the plastic panels between/under the roll bars creaking. They do it REAL bad. I found if you spray some silicon spray in the gaps between the panels it stops for quite a while. If you push - pull on the panels you can duplicate the creaks.
You might see if your creaks can be isolated to the plastic panels this way.

: Hi guys
: My top is driving me nuts, creaks every bump. it is right in back of my ear infact. Do the joints, the black arms, that fold the top need to be oiled. It sounds like a creaking sound. Anyone else have this darn problem? Thanks a lot for your input on this one guys.
