Default Creaking Dash, Mirror, you name it....

Okay, after following numerous threads for dash creaks, squeaks, you name it, I've torn my dash apart several times now. Part of the issue seemed to be coming from around my nav screen. I padded the plastic areas that come in contact with the nav unit were it bolts in and tidied up some things and that has helped. I also found the clip that Jumbo had posted in some prior threads and padded that with some felt. It has helped but still have the annoying plastic creaking sound when you turn or go over bumps. I've torn my glove boxes out and searched through there to see if I could find the heating duct underneath the front right speaker but after investigation, no creaking sound was coming from there. I've also pressed in on the plastic tray that hides the wires for the Homelink rear view mirror but still have the creak. While driving today, I noticed that it seems to be the mirror itself. I've tried tightening it up, but the mirror just seems to creak.

Has anyone else encountered this and if so, is there a fix for it? Creaks, squeaks and the likes drive me nuts I'm sure like many of you out there.

Thanks
