Leaky Convertible Top
I have a 98 c5 convertible. Is there a way to adjust the top to seal a little better. When it rains i have to keep a towel handy and its getting annoying. Should i replace all the weatherstripping. I had a 04 c5 and it did the same thing so there has to be a simple fix.

I don't have any suggestions for you on the top. Mine doesn't leak on my '01 vert, but while we wait on someone who does have ideas, I can't help be think that there is a story behind why you used to have an 04 but now you have a 98. What's the scoop?

Well I originally had a tahoe but my dream car was a corvette so i sold the tahoe and got a 2004 vette. The payments were around 800 a month and that was reaking me so i drove it for a while. It was an Automatic which sucked so i eneded up finding a couple months later a 98 model that was a stick with only 40,000 miles it was in better condition than the 04 and it was a stick so i had to have it and the payments were 200 dollars cheaper.

I appreciate all the comments. It has been a hell of a week for me and my cars. The window has been catching on the top on the passenger side so this should help hopefully.Thanks Guys!
