Default Squeaking noise coming from trunk area

Hello all. So I got a 07 GT and well when driving on the highway I hear this very annoying squeaking sound coming from trunk area, which to me almost sounds like rubbing Styrofoam together. I have torn that trunk to pieces looking for the source of the squeak. It only happens once I'm up rnd 75mph. I pulled the back seats down and it was definitly louder and coming from the back. Any ideas??
Thanks

aaaa1236 so what did you do about these squeeky LCA bushings? Spray some WD 40 on them?

Mine just needed greased, they have the nipple for a grease gun and i just shot some up in there. I still have some but its much quieter. If you dont have a way to lubricate via grease gun then im not sure what you could do, i wouldnt use wd40, stick with grease not oil.
