So after about 20000km I finally fix the squeak behind the rear seat. I thought it was the rear window at first cause every time I shut the door I would here it or go over any crack/bump in the road.so anyway I took that trim piece off and notice it had metal clips holding it on,they went into a metal hole. So I just put ducktape around each clip so it wouldn't be metal on metal and squeak be gone.

I've fixed more than one rattle that way.

 

You think all the manufacturers would know this and just put a tape over every place the trim clips are attached.

 

They would all produce vehicle that had virtually no rattles.

Here are 2 pictures the one shows the metal clip, I put tape around all of them. The other picture shows where that metal clip went in its about a 1/4 slot. I have no idea why they would ever put something metal on metal it's just asking to squeak. The back trim pieces are fairly easy to pop off. I just pulled the 2 outside ones off carefully. The middle one is a little tricky you have to pull flex and lift up carefully I broke one of the black plastic guides but it didn't seem to affect it going back together. Hopefully this helps out a bit more
