Default Roof noise fixed!

Was having a lot of creeks and noise coming from the roof. very annoying! Following this guy's advice for the first time my car is silent with top up. I hit about 8 spots with it and it worked great

I used gaffers tape its a little easier to work with

I did this and it reduced/removed the squeaks I was hearing. There might be some plastic rubbing on each other that I still need to find though. I'll be lubing some of the joints with silicone spray this weekend and hunt them all down. Thanks for posting the info here, it really helps. The squeaks are almost all gone now. Just that plastic to plastic or joint rubbing when hitting bumps/cracks on the road.
