A while back I thought I had cured the leaks that wet both front seats. But with all the heavy rain, they are back. Although I have applied silicon grease to the rubber seals around the T-Top, I dont think thats the problem.

 

After inspecting the door seals, I saw a "depression" at the top of the rubber seal where the window contacts it. I have tried building up that area with black silicon, but it still leaks.

 

Has anyone replaced the door seals ? and did that cure any of your leaks ?

 

Is it easy replacing door seals?

 

Thanks

Yeah you can replace the seals shouldn't be difficult. The Z Centre sells them. See his website ref under the Traders section.

Cheers,

I spent months trying to fix a leak in the driver side. I tried everything I could think of then found that the seal between the glass of the t-top and the body-coloured piece above the side window (not sure if that's a good description) had perished.

 

I re-sealed it with some black rubber sealant from Halfords and HEY PRESTO !! SORTED !!

 

Just a thought.............

Thanks Mark,

 

I will give it another go with sealant, but in the end I think I need a new door rubber strip. I will try sealing the strip that joins the T-Top to the painted bit.

 

Cheers

Peanut butter apparently :confused:, do a search on peanut butter and you will see what I mean.

It's PEANUT OIL Stu!!

 

Not butter. As you will know rubber is oil based, the peanut oil replenishes the dried out rubber, swelling it back to it's original state. well thats the idea!

 

You will need several applications, I'm told you can get it from TESCO's

 

Chris..;)
