Hi Blacky,

I missed your reply 3 weeks ago. Has anyone snapped them up since then? Got a wet drivers seat again on friday. How much to post the Newcastle? I might try them plus the coax cable thing & see how it goes.

Or you could be lucky and someone might have bought a set with their new seals and never needed them.
I've got 2 of the guides, which will do one side only. $10 plus postage, but it will be much cheaper than from the states. PM if interested.

Thanks Blacky, Don't worry, I found a full set on ebay for heaps less postage than twosrus. :)

New rubbers all around including the tee top as they will have the selastic on them , clean all 4 drain tubes and readjusting the window hight will definitely work.

the eccentric t-tops rings dont work thats great, but still fixes a bit of the issue
i reckon the eccentric rings along with the co-axial cable is the way to go
cheers

Might even find if you put one each side it even helps

Dam thats expensive for posting them. I brought them a few years ago but it was with a lot of other stuff from them as well. but they worked really well on mine.

There was someone doing a group buy from them a couple of weeks ago so if you knew then you could of saved a bit. I would just wait till someone dose another.

My car was sitting outside in the rain all day today. I've noticed the passenger side leaks a little every now & then, but today I had a slightly wet drivers seat. " />
Just found this. Went to the website, I thought at $7 would be worth trying. But there is only express shipping for about $54.00 :(. might have to try something else.

This could help to close the gap between the targa and the driver's window.

Just did the co-ax mod on my roof, now it won't rain for me to test it!

*Edit
Definitely improves the seal, only times I have had a leak are where the car is pointing downhill and it leaked at the back of the hatch.

Here's a suggestion that makes some sense. If coax is too much, fig 8, would also work..

The co-ax trick is the best idea I have seen so far and I have tried them all. Great find!! " />" />

I used rubber rejuvenate which basically got rid of the leak but sometimes in torrential rain will still come through.

I use black windscreen silicone to build up between the targa seal and the rubber on the door frame. I must put some more on though, few drips here and there.

I fixed mine by moisturising the seals with silicone gel once a week for a few weeks. That was good enough to get me through last winter. This winter I'm not so sure since the car's been off the road.

You can get the lubricant from pool supply stores, it's used for lubricating O-rings.
