squeaking

I noticed today that right under the headlight pod every time I steer it there is a squeak I was looking for a grease zerk and could not find one how can I get rid of that annoying squeak?

The older steering stems used to have a grease zerk. Wasn't sealed, so if you weren't careful you could grease a whole bunch of other stuff too. Your way was probably just as efficient.
