I have been told to use that dielectric grease as a " dressing "
for the weather stripping to help preserve it.
As far as keeping them from moving, make sure everything is
pretty tight.

Sounds like they need adjusted - they shouldn't move at all. Remove the A pillars and B pillars, underneath the 'holes' for the T-top pins can be adjusted.

I though they would move a little regardless how tight they were.I just though the rubber should be lubracated with a special greese or oil.I will try the adjustment never the less.Thanks

i think what you may be hearing while moving is the body flexing a bit. dielectric grease will help a bit, but subframe connectors would help to fix the underlying problem better

What are subframe connectors?Never heard of them.

These cars are unibody construction which means there is no frame. The front is a seperate section than the rear so the sub frame connectors get welded in to connect the rear section to the front. This will stiffen the body and remove flex that was designed into the car originally. Look at pictures of the underside of these cars and you will see what I'm referring to. Also, do a search for subframe connectors and you will see pictures of cars with them installed.
