Whistles while you drive....can't stand it!

Now that the weather is getting a little cooler I'm driving with the windows up. What I notice the most is the whistling from the vent windows. It's driving me crazy!

I've replaced all the rubber gaskets, felt and seals, re-seated the glass and the vent lock/latches are tight. But I still get whistling. This summer I tried to find out where it was coming from by covering all the outside vent window rubber areas with masking tape and driving. It was quiet! Then I gradually removed the tape one piece at a time until I heard the whistle. Unfortunately, I still couldn't pinpoint where the whistle came from.

Anyone have suggestions or tricks to take care of this annoyance? Please - Nobody tell me to go with one-piece glass - I LIKE the vents!

Thanks,
