T-Top Leak

Hey Guys,
When it rains my driver side T-Top leaks on my 97' T/A. I looked at the t-top and it looks ok, however my weather stripping on the car that surrounds the t-top looks damaged. Are there any cheap DIY fixes? If not how hard is it to replace the weather stripping? How much? Thanks!!

Buy a roll of black electrical tape for less than $1.00 and cut about a 2" strip off and place it where the rear of the t-top's weatherstripping meets the front of the door's weatherstripping. This will stop water from coming in, however you will have to keep reapplying tape because opening and closing the door will eventually wear it down.

When I got new power window motors, they pushed my windows further up into the weatherstripping and eliminated the need for me to use the tape.
