Default passenger pillar vibration

I have a humming vibration coming from the passenger side windshield pillar at freeway speeds. does anyone know how to eliminate the vibration? seems to be secure whenever i inspect it but i can't find any other possible causes?

Have you had the windshield replaced as mine does that since replacement. I have tried to locate vibration but cannot find it. The fitters have obviously bent the trim somewhere causing the vibration.

Cool Roof Lights

If you have the roof lights it could be a good place to look. That's where my "Vibration noise at speed" is. Just can't seem to eliminate all of it yet.

I had it also, It turned out to be a plastic insert above the door that fits into the roof rack channel system, A dab of silicon fixed it,

I looked at mine last night and that plastic insert is cracked. I can't seem to find that part or an exploded view anywhere online.

went and looked the plastic moulding where it meets the roof trim. peeled it back a bit and found a broken tab attached to the mounting screw for the trim. removed the tab and sound is gone.... should get new trim pieces but thats another project
