Default Thank You "SEARCH FEATURE" 2012 FX4 Dash Squeek SOLVED!

I have had this constant dash squeek for a few weeks that all but drove me crazy! (crazy that I could not find the source) Sounded like mice squeeking or more like 2 egg cartons rubbing together, anyway I Searched and found it to be the heavier duty type black Styrofoam Hood hinge pieces that are around the hinge mount under the wiper panel cowl. Sprayed them with some spray silicone and the squeek is GONE! It really sounded like it was almost under the center dash top piece by the psgr airbag inside the truck. Those Black Styrofoam pieces dry out I geuss and generate this screeching almost metallic loose clip / metal on metal sound.

Whoa wait...you used the search bar? That's weird. Why would you do that instead of just starting a new thread? Hahaha!

Cool, I'm going to take a look at that on my own truck, as it also has a squeak.

You may be the first person that the search function actually worked correctly.
