Default Strange steering noise

My classic impreza turbo recently developed a screeching sound when making slow speed turns, such as parking

The strange thing is it seems to be comming from right behind the steering wheel, inside the cabin; so not the power steering belt

Today the screeching noise has been replaced with a 'tick tick tick' noise when turning for tight manovers , again it seems to be comming from right behind the steering wheel.

Any ideas guys??

Great cheers I will give it a bash tonight.

From your reply it sounds like I don't even need to take the plastic cowling off ?
