Forbidden USA hardtop issues
Mine creaked like an old door whenever the car was rolling, bumps or not, when I had the top tightened down with someone pushing on it. I retightened it with the top just resting on the car and no more creaking. Looks the same from the outside gap-wise, but as others have mentioned, getting the areas behind your shoulder sealed is tough as hell. Still squeaks a little over really uneven surfaces like driveway entrances, but nothing to lose sleep over.
The shin etsu (or however it is spelled) grease worked wonders for me. I've noticed my wind noise went from none in the winter to lots during the summer. I'm assuming its because the top softens up a bit in the heat (I'm talking 100+). Bought some new hardtop brackets for the front tha I'm going to try. 2 sets of shims wasn't enough.
Point is, it's going to take some fiddling to get your top perfect.
