Hardtop water leakage
« on: October 03, 2016, 10:59:36 »
Today is my first day driven in a rain after full restoration. I got all new rubbers seals. However there are big water dripping between chrome strip and rubber on hard top. Any advise to fix this issue?

Did you use gasket sealant before putting the chrome trims back on the hardtop?
Should be a bead of it there to prevent these issues.
Also did you allow a little extra rubber at the joints, so the joints can mash together a little.

Have to check with my garage and have them redo it.

Thanks,
