Hi Alex,

	Yup, I got da squeaks too. Front passenger sentbelt buckle assembly
rubs on leather seat no matter how hard I twist or bend it. I've tried Lenox,
armour-all on the leather and buckle, respectively...no luck. Where the left
lower corner of the windshield and the dash come together...nagging oinka oinka
noise going over rough pavement; again, I've tried many ointment, or is that
oinkments, all with no lasting success. I don't want to smear my interior with
vasoline jelly, but I believe the 5K(100/200) series cars did not possess a lot
of structural ridgidity, again, I think, this problem was addressed in later
models. I also get squeaks and clicks and rattles out of the door latches; I
hear that if I replace the small nylon(sp?) pieces the wrap around the door
latch post this can be cured, but I haven't gone lookin' for the pieces yet.

HTH, or at least lets you know you're not alone.
