Default ttops adjusting

I have been getting rid of all my wind noises lately. All I have left is a wistling coming from the front center of the car side of the right top. It is on the opposite side of the latch and does not fasten down tight enough. So, does anyone know of any way to tighten the side of the tops without the latch.

Pull the interior panel and tighten the screws down on inside front tongue. Check and see if there are "W" shaped spacers under it, if there are you can remove them or some.

If that will not fix, you probably need new T-Top seals.

Hope this helps.
