Default Leaking Help!

Was washing mar car today and noticed that i had some leaking of water on the inside. I checked it out and it seems to be the same on both the driver side and passenger in the same places. I checked the targa and it was as tight as possible so it must be the weather stripping. Is this a common problem...if so how do i fix :confused:

There are some drains (outboard) & one in the center, I think. Use a flashlight & look thru the screen below your wipers. Sometimes they get full of debris. :cheers:

Remove the targa top for a couple of days. Use Silicone Grease, sold by GM as a weatherstrip conditioner. It works great and extends the life of the weatherstrip.
