Plastic Squeaking noise?

The plastic pieces of my console are squeaking and since my console is falling apart I am getting ready to order a new one but the pieces of my dash still squeak when I hit a bump. I guess the plastic is just rubbing up against each other. How do I stop this from happening? Cause it makes me go nuts sometimes cause it sounds like my car is falling apart.

i dont think it will ever not squeak, but sub frame connectors should make it a little bit more solid

try shoving folded-up black construction paper in between certain panels. I've had success doing this, and you wouldn't even find the paper unless I told you it was there. You'd be surprised....although it may sound like the squeaks are coming from all over, it's usually only 1 or 2 problem areas that you have to fix.

I am gonna have to try that once I find the damn mouse in my car it seems to move from one side to another. Squeaks drive me nuts.
