T-Top question

[foxy50]

As far as I know, there's only 2 of us on here, but I've been wanting to ask and figured this would be the best board to have the info on, should other t-toppers join. MY T-TOPS LEAK!!!!! The car came with 2 brand new gaskets to install, but I don't know where they go. Anyway, here's my request, Mr. Bones Would you be willing to take a picture of your window/t-top area showing where all the gaskets SHOULD be, so I can compare to mine and hopefully correct the problems? If my windows arent rolled up just right, they leak. When i wash my car w/high pressure.....they leak. Guess it's more of a window leak issue than t-tops. But anything would be appreciated!!!

Well I didnt know that...woohoo!!!! Im just trying to see how the window/t-top area SHOULD look so I can compare mine and find out what is missing. And if anyone knows a cheaper place to get the gasket kit. eBay is $380

best thing to do is to weld up those holes with sheet metal or sell the car and get a hard top.bones will be here shortley now that i have bashed on t-tops again.

No for sale sign for my baby If the windows are rolled up while the door is shut, they dont leak, but if I close the door after, they do, in the front & back corners of the windows. And forget about the high pressure at the car wash....lol. They bring a lot of attention to the car. And until I make it up your way, I'm the only Fox in the lot with t-tops ;D
