I'd personally not mess with lubrication on the roof frame unless there are noticeable problems like noise or sticking I doubt there's enough friction to wear out the frame.

Only reference I can find is Step 3 (page 2) of this ancient (23 year old) recall regarding non-pivoting roof frame parts. Spray white lithium grease. Maybe a drop of CLP in problem hinge areas?
