Convertible top creak/squeak when opening and closing

Hi, My 991 cab has an awful creak/squeak that seems to be coming from the center of the top when I open it and close t. The noise is most pronounced at about the halfway point of opening. If I stop it at that point and slightly move the top mechanism back and forth with my hand, I can get it to make the noise. So you'd think that, if I can do that, I could lube it in the area of the noise and solve the problem. But no. No matter what I try or what lube I use (Dupont silicon, silicon grease, Dupont dry lube) I can't seem to fix it. It's really an awful noise. Has anyone else experienced and solved this? And does anyone know the correct lube points toward the middle of the 991 top?

I have a 2017 991.2 GTS Cab and am hearing the same squeal as the top opens. Commenting so I can see if anyone else has found a solution.
