I know there are a bunch of us out there with leaky verts. I am to the point where I want a coupe or even a s14. I love my convertible and have put to much time in it to get rid of it. If anyone can shed any light on where to get replacement seals or just an idea or how they got theirs to stop leaking sort of thing, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

It might help if you could specify which area youve narrowed down where the leak is coming from. Im just glad my top doesnt leak at all and we get plenty of rainy days here in BC.

Mine leaks through the back window really bad. Not so much when im driving in the rain, but if its parked in a rainstorm. That rubber lining between the window and back seat normally catches about a liter or two. Just put a deposit on a new top. Getting it installed next week. At 1100 bucks fully installed its not very cheap. :frown:

mine does the same thing only in hard rain i know what it is tho theres a part of the seal right on the corner of the windshield and the top where there is a hard plastic piece of the seal and its missing on my driver side hence why i always get rain on my leg but only when it rains hard and it drips its not like it pours on me so its not that big of a deal but check that...could be ur problem
