I've got to admit, when the right weather conditions present themselves, there's nothing like a long drive in a cabs with the top down. Creak or not.

Great advice. Thanks and let's hope that it gets above 35 in CT soon so I can take your advice.

Instead of silicon, try Krytox from Dupont. It got rid of a creak in my window frame when I owned an A3 that nothing else was able to eliminate.
