Squeaky Steering Wheel 00 camry

Hey guys
I just did a search for my problem, and I see numerous threads about it online, but none of them are comprehensive nor offer much usable information.

Here goes:
It's winter (duh), and my steering wheel makes high pitched squeaking whiny noises whenever I turn the wheel in either direction.
It sounds like it's coming from the steering wheel or its attachment to the steering column, definitely inside the cabin of the car.

Any suggestions to fix this? Thanks in advance. I have silicone spray and wd-40 available, but don't know what to do with either and where the problem lies.

There is a rubber dust shield behind steering wheel at the column that makes a moan type noise.

There is a universal joint in the foot pedal area with a dust boot as well.

Spray some silicone where the rubber/plastic can rub to see if that goes away.
It happened on my 00 several years ago and I have not hear it again. I used Lloyd's Loob it spray.

Do not use WD40 on plastic.

what do these parts *look like and do I need to remove anything to get to them?
I'll take a look in the morning- the nighttime will impede my vision
Thanks
