Default need T-top favor in southern Connecticut- will by lunch or something

I have a 2002 ss and my driver's t-top has been creaking and making noise for the last year. I've pulled it apart a few times and I think it's either the plastic frame is fatigued or the glue to the glass is bad. Before I spend the money on a new t-top I'd like to make sure it's the t-top and not something else.

I'd like someone who has a t-top car run my driver's side t-top for 1 minute down the street. If it's noisy on your car, and assuming your t-top was quiet, then mine is bad.

I'm in Shelton CT.
pm if you can help.
will by lunch or beer.

I finally got around to messing with it today, shimmed the crap out of it with cardboard and now it seems to be quiet. will know more tomorrow when i drive it, i'm starting to think it's the weatherstripping on the roof panel and not the top, when i latch it normally with no shims it latches real easy so i think it might just be bouncing around.

thanks for the responses.
