The strangest thing. I washed my car yesterday (as I do every Sat), and the squeeking has almost disappeared. So it may be that the rubber was drying out and got dampened when I was washing my car. I'll see how the week goes by and see if the noise comes out. Regardless, I'm going to the dealership next week to get the silicone applied. I don't see what the big harm of silicon is....it's greasy stuff. Once applied, it should not dry out for years and it's not gonna eat away your weather strips...it's not caustic like acid or anything potent like that!
