A little annoying problem

I just bought a 91 Coupe and I am very proud and happy with the car. However there is this annoying squeak coming from the passenger dash area. I've pressed on numerous areas around the dash, but I think it may be under the dash somewhere.

Any ideas or help is greatly appreciated !

Make sure it's not the mirror.

Yes, check the hood bumpers and adjust upward. I had same annoying squeak at left side of dash. I raised the bumpers and so far no more squeak.

I'll be checking the mirror and the hood bumpers in the morning. Hope it works.

Thanks

It seems as if the the hood bumpers were the culprit, thanks for the advice.

I had a similar squeek that sounded like it was coming from the dash area. It turned out to be the targa top. Ecklers sold me a silencer kit for it...no more squeeks. Just my 2 cents FWIW. ps...enjoy the car!
