It could be the glove compartment, could be the whole dash. You can pop out the glove compartment and WD-40/lube all the parts that it connects to and stick out of it. I had an annoying squeak in my center console. WD-40 took that squeak away.

lol...Thanks for the quick responses. ill try the wd40 and hope it works. guess i might as well put wd40 on the squeaking over head handle as well. man i love my car but these noises just makes it a love hate type deal.

where would this damper be located at? i wish i could just ignore the squeak but its like someone is walking around a squeaky floor. just cant wait to get rid of these squeaks. i hope i could just drop my car in a pool of wd40, thatll solve all my problems.

The piston is on the right side and it slows the door from slamming open. You could remove it, it just slides on, to see if that's your noise, before wd40-ing it.
My money is on the squeak that comes from the door flexing, and needing the foam tape to stop that movement.

I will definately try the foam tape. i think that it is the door flexing thats causing the squeak because if i put some pressure on it the squeak stops. thanks for all the help.

Watching this one for a definitive solution. My glovebox has an annoying squeak. It's not a rattle, just a squeak, and it happens over bumps. It sounded to me like it was coming from the top-left corner of the glovebox door.

whoaaaa nearly 2 year bump haha
didn't wanna start a new thread but my glove box is making the same @#$!@ noise. Anyone ever come up with a solution? Not even sure if the OP posts here anymore..I'll try the foam tape thing.
Anyway kinda wanted to bring this back from the dead for anyones input on the problem?
going on a decently long drive in a few weeks and ughh..that noise is gonna drive me insane..
