I bought an adhesive-backed sheet of black felt from Hobby Lobby for about a dollar and have been using pieces in all kinds of places to eliminate plastic squeaking. It works in the wind blocker, the roll bar hoop blockers, the dashboard pieces. My mirrors used to squeak where they contacted the windshield frame. The car has cables routed through plastic "fingers" in various internal trim panels that will sometimes rub against each-other, making noise. Sometimes the climate control and DSP panels in the dashboard would make noise too. I also used some of it to stop a popping behind the dashboard caused by the dash steel and the aluminum support bar rubbing when the chassis was twisted (one wheel up the driveway). The car is a lot more quiet thanks to that felt sheet.
