Ive had a quick search but not really found any good ideas on how to fix this.

 

Whats the best way to unblock the water drain holes on the targas.

sorry may have not made clear what i meant the drain holes on mine are fine its in the actual rubber on the a pillars that meets the targa tops. Might need to buy new seals but my paasanger side is leaking right where the A pillar seal meets the targa seal,:headvswal

same here, I've used one of the wd40 directional spray plastic tubes (small red tube you get for sticking in the nozzle) under the rubber, hasn't fixed the problem, but has made it less of a leak.

Whatever you do don't spend £100 on new targa rubbers yet! I did but it didn't fix mine! Think my next test is to remove 'A' pillar rubbers to see if there is a channel inside which may be blocked.

Is it leaking down the inside of the pillar into the seatbelt mechanism, then from there into the passenger footwell?

blow compressed air down the holes, also follow the drain pipes to make sure they havent popped off, mine had but luckily i had noticed it and put it back on, i also heated up the pipe and stretched it to give itsome extra length as theshrink with age and pop off.

I managed to fix the passenger side fully and the driver only leaks under heavy rain by using the creeping crack stuff someone else recommended, just lifted up the rubber seal, dripped the sealant in, did several treatments and seem ok most of the time.

With the creeping crackcure what u wanna do is sqiurt it on the joints while the targas are onso it CREEPS through the sills and in all the joints and places where water might get through then it sealsit self ;) you wanna do it a few times, maybe once every day 3 times.

pour mr muscle down there?

 

sink cleaner, thats what its for. or would it just burn through the rubber
