2004 SL55 Top Adjustment?

Just picked up a 2004 SL55 that has a pretty creaky top when driving down the road. No road noise but it still creaks alot. Today we had a little shower and I noticed a very small and slow drip where the top meets the windshield frame on the right side of the car. That also seems to be the spot where the creaking is coming from. Is there any adjustment on this thing? Thanks!

The rubber seals might be dried out.

I know my rubber seals are dried out. It only makes noise when I am at angles (driveways and such). Anyone know what a new set cost???
