My top is leaking extreamly bad. I spent all Monday pulling the carpet up and removing the soaked insulation and vacuuming out water!::Censor:: My top frame seems to be worn out as well or just needs adjustment. Anyone experienced with checking it out or know a good place near Plano area to have it looked at. In the mean time gonna keep an eye on ebay before I blow my next paycheck on a new top.
Same problem dude! except mine only leaks to where the outer edges of the seats and cargo shelf gets wet. Which acually worries me cause I have some pricey upward mounted speakers installed in the cargo shelf and I don't need those getting wet. The fog is getting /really/ annoying every time it rains and same with the twin jets of water that drip on my wrist and leg whenever I slow down from the inside rain catcher doohickeys.
Of course on a college student budget I'm currently stalking a few ebay auctions, no robbins or whatnot for me here. Vinyl with glass window for only $300 shipped! wooooo... /cry.
I hear ya! And I would hate to replace it with a cheap one. I'm just wondering about my top frame though. Seems flimsy now and doesn't flip right up and go straight into the latches all the time. I have to pull it tight to get it to seal to the front windshield to snap the latches sometimes!:punchout:Quote:

do you guys close the latches one at a time or both of them together, errr do you close them when you're inside the car or outside?
mine had a problem around where the window closes but i just moved the plastic seal outward and now the window closes in place...
one last leak i need to get rid of is the a/c vent, when i hit a puddle of water i feel little sprinkles on my right hand in the shifter area... anyone?
Do you guys know the top, seals, latches, and windows are adjustable? You might have to do some research on the pointy board but it is the CB way.
Now if you're rear deck and trunk are getting soaked, it's likely your rain rail. This is rivited to the top but buying a used NB top would be beneficial as the NB tops have a more durable rubber rain rail as opposed to the fragile plastic on on the NA.
Shifter boot maybe??Quote:
