I have finally eliminated all but one leak, my floor is wet behind the driver seat. I gutted all the trim around the drain pocket, found the problem. My drain tube is nearly pulled off the pocket. It is too early in the day to drink. LOL

I am thinking of sliding a smaller tube inside the oem one, extending it up an inch or so. Then get some water proof thread and sewing it up tight around this.

I am assuming there are no adhesives that could glue this all back together?

Anybody else encountererd this? The top is in great shape otherwise.

So I found a product called GOOP. Supposed to work really well on leather and other fabrics, and is waterproof. I am doing a few layers and think this will work pretty well. For $9, it is cheaper than a new top.

Clean everything really well and use Black RTV to seal the tube flange to the bottom of the pocket. That is the prescribed way during a top replacement, so it should work for repair.

Good luck.

Thanks. This GOOP should be enough. It is waterproof and quick drying. I will do 3 layers to be safe. God I can't wait to get it back together and start enjoying it again.
