Default Squeeky seat Help Please

My driver's seat has an annoying squeek along the door side when I am sitting in it.........but I can't seem to pin it down.

Anyone have any experiences finding seat squeeks in the past ? It seems to be along the back rather than the seat bottom......but not sure.

No, but mine developed the same squeak recently. I notice mine whenever I turn to look for traffic as I'm backing up. Very annoying.

Mine squeaks on the passenger side. I rarely have a passenger so I've been putting off fixing it. But yesterday I drove this girl around and squeaked every time I drove over uneven surface. Very annoying. I'll look into too.

Check to make sure it's not the seatbelt that's squeaking. In a post above I stated that it seems to happen specially when I turn to look behind me, most often in a parking lot. On a whim, I grabbed my seatbelt at my chest and pulled it slightly out-in-out-in. Sure enough, I believe I heard the same squeak. Don't know how to fix it, though.
