squeaks V70-XC70

The photo that shows the problem on my car. If you look
where it is circled there is a jagged edge. It used to be straight and
would screech. I pulled at the plastic and deformed it to what you see
in the image (you can also see a bit refelcted in the windshield from the
flash). The rough surface in the foreground is the dash speaker.

I pushed and taped a business card down into this area between the dash
and the glass and that stopped it. After that, I went ahead and cut at
the plastic.

It can be hard to see; you have to align your head along the A piller and
look down.

The image is of the passenger side but there is also one on the drivers
side.

As I mentioned, nobody else seems to have this problem but it is worth a
shot.

The glove box area is also a source of a high pitched squeek.
