It is glued in the back near the windshield and the glue is very lightly stuck. It sometimes squeeks and stops when you push on the radio plate because that plate puts pressure on it. Pull both covers off and you will be able to fix it pretty easy.

Thanks, I'll have to give that a try. It's consistent and persistent, very annoying. Have lots of different thicknesses and durometers of foam and padding where I work. Usually crank the radio loud enough where I can't hear the squeaks but that's ridiculous. Have an '02 Xterra as well, Nissan makes great vehicles but they all have little squeaks and annoying details that have been overlooked.
