I have been trying to chase down some small annoying noises in preparation for a long road trip.

I replaced my targa top seals last year and now I believe I still have a squeak coming form the rear latches.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix anyone knows of?

this post can be deleted I accidentally posted it in the paddock but have since posted it on the garage.

A couple of smaller pieces of adhesive backed felt, in the recesses, cures the stand off squeaks.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) THere's also teflon tape with adhesive backing that you can apply in certain spots. Don't overlook the latch itself--the hook part can rub against the metal post in the top and the smallest motion will squeak--a bit of lube may help with that or try wrapping some teflon tape there also.....good luck!
OTOH, open up your intakes and put on the megaphones & TA-DA no squeaks anymore!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
