Arrow Driver side door check strap

So the drivers door on my em2 doesn't stop at the indents on the factory installed door check strap. I've ordered a new one part number 72380-S5P-A01, this unit doesn't come greased so I'm wondering what long lasting grease I can put on this strap when I install it.

I would leave it as is with no lube, and keep it clean.

They consist of 2 super hard rubber squares that press against the black plastic rail, and detents.

Re: Driver side door check strap

Installed today, took around 15 minutes. Did NOT lube the assembly. Appears to be working just fine without any additional lubrication. I will say that the rubber was completely worn out on one side of the stopper that's mounted on the inside of the door.
