"darn" my t top leaks........ (edited by moderator)
Ok im not ashamed to say it........i was in a hurry and had no time to wash my car and it was DIRTY!! so i took it to one of those places that wash the car for you with high pressure water and the damn passenger side t top leaks. Is there anything i can do to fix it?

I thought mine was leaking as well.....turns out that the passenger side window wont close fully if i do it right away with the door shut. it will go all the way up if i open the door then try, so try this.
yeah, i had a leak with mine and it was the window not going up all the way. I adjusted the stopping point while I was in the changing the motor, and now it goes up all the way, no leaks.
actually, even if you put new weather stripping in you probably will still leak if you aim a high pressure jet of water at it.
T tops were never designed to stop high pressure water shooting at it from the bottom or directly at the seal.
Rain just doesn,t work that way.
Even in a friggin downpour my Ts might seep a little but if I direct high pressure hose water from the car wash at the windows it will be very wet in the car.
Just try not let high pressure water jets spray at the Ts.
I hand wash my car for this very reason, that and I can get the car much cleaner hand washing it.

As I was sitting in traffic today mine would drip on my leg every once in a while. It only sees rain maybe once a month so I can live with it. 
Wait till you get the lake in the floorboard of the rear passeger side.

The langauge filter here has been activated by the admins for a reason... please do not over-ride it. Thanks!
As a friendly reminder to all... if you KNOW the langauge filter is going to "get" a word you want to type and you find yourself inserting other characters to get the brunt of your word out there, that should put up a big red flag in your head that you are doing something you shouldn't be doing. As I'm sure you all know because you all go to many types of boards like this, the board software gives the option to filter certain words or not. The admins decide whether to turn this option on or off. Since we all know the language filter here has been turned ON, please respect the admins wishes and don't try to get around it. Thanks

mine leak here and there...usually when i take them through the car washes...but every now and then they leak in the rain...i found what i think is a solution...atleast for me...
place the t-tops as far forward as possible when you latch them in...make sure it is tight across the front with barely any crack... and then open the doors and put the windows up as far as they can go....hold the button down for an extended amount of time and you should be alright...this made it so i could go through an auto wash with no leak...maybe itll work for you....
