Help Stop Leaking Convertable Top!!!
Does anyone have this problem too??? I am looking for a quick or cheap fix. I'm guessing the weatherstipping is messed up on the targa top above the window. They cost $50 a piece from the dealer, I'm looking for a place that sells them cheaper... PLEASE HELP

Check the rubber rain gutter
If the dripping is from the corner where the front part of the side window meets the channel guide, could be a misalligned rubber rain gutter.
Sometimes when working on your car, they get moved to be misaligned. Easy to move and align as they just pull off and press back on.

You can adjust the latches on the targa piece. Just loosen the lock nut and twist the hook shaped thingy inward or outward, I actually had to cut some of the threads off of it so that I could tighten it enough. It solved my leak and would probably fix yours, my latches are now very hard to close but it makes things real tight. I'm not sure if anyone ever mentioned this method; maybe I should of posted it along time ago.
