Default Squeaky hardtop

Anyone else with a hardtop finding it squeaks a lot in the colder weather or over uneven surfaces (ruts from snow/ice)? Most of the squeaking is coming from the front where it meets the windshield frame.

Is there any way to remedy this? Or is it just how the hardtop behaves in winter?

Mine squeaks at the back where the seal meats the plastic strip on the rear of the top well opening. Grease the seals and it will diminish. I don't think you'll ever get it to quit entirely.

Alright, I think my GM Silicon emulsion is too old (its the original bottle I bought back when I first got my '01)... I think I'll just buy a new bottle and see if thats what the problem is.
