Convertible Rear-Deck Leak
Hello, I noticed that water was entering my car from one side of the rear deck as it appears to be not closing completely. Water then builds up in the channel and leaks in.
Is there a way to lower the catch to make the deck close tighter?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I'm pretty sure that I have read that it is adjustable but I no longer have a vert and can't remember ever needing to adjust it on the 2 I used to own.
The weatherstripping around it my be hardened up. Try cleaning the weatherstripping and rubbing some dielectric grease into it to soften it up.
