Window seal
Hey guys, I have a 76 that im doing some work on and first thing I want to tackle is the weather stripping. Can someone show me how their window seals with the t-tops? I'm getting some gaps that are causing some serious noise!

Gaps where? along the top of the glass at the T-tops? Front edge? Rear edge? I was able to adjust the T-tops in toward the center T-bar just a little, which helped the glass seal better at the tops. You can also adjust the angle of the window.... inside the door, if you have the door panel off.

Wind noise is a way of life with the c3's.
The tops of the doors allow access to the adjustments once the door panel is removed.
I found it impossible to close a tiny gap against the rearward most vertical window seal.

All the AIMs have a page or two of diagrams and notes telling how to set the door glasses against the weatherstripping. For coupes, get a good fit on the tops before starting on the glass.
