I kind of ruled out the neuspeed 19mm anti sway bar, since I can hear the squeeking coming from both the front and rear of the car.

My car seems to "creak" more than "squeak" though...it's not horrible, just noticeable on big bumps.
To me it definitely sounds like a suspension noise, but I haven't had the rear swaybar long enough to know what that would sound like if it were making a sound.

If you get a chance to take it apart...
try greasing the contact area between the lower front perch and the spring, and the contact areas around any dead coils in the front springs.
For the rear, I would still grease those sway bar bushings, and the lower spring perch. The dead coils should be wrapped in sheath...make sure that's intact, and if it isn't, try throwing a little grease on them as well.

Grease on sway bar links is good, I'll try some grease (marine?) on the springs.......
funny thing is, I was going to shoot some marine silicone on them just to test my theory (lazy b*st*rd fix).
Thanks for the tips.

Not on the swaybar links...on the bushings along the middle of the bar.
I think we're both thinking of the same thing...but when you said links, I wasn't sure if you were thinking end links or the bushings, so I'm just clarifying.
