Creaking bottle cage

I have a couple of the cheapo ebay carbon bottle cages which sometimes creak over bumps. The bolts are nice and snug but not up to the 5nm (iirc) max torque spec'ed by Felt. Should I (1) up the torque to the spec (2) put some grease between the frame and cage or (3) ignore it, what do you expect from this cheap stuff or (4) ?
