Convertible top leaks :(
I forgot that I had this problem, as it just started raining heavily the other day. I've played with the seals, checked for a gap at the window, but still nothing. The leak occurs where the two weather strippings meet, on both sides (passenger side leak closer to the rear)
When I got off work, opened my door and my seat AND armrest were splattered with rain drops. Im hoping you all have an answer, cause im sure this is killin the leather and cushions...
Thanks in advance!

Is the glass compressing the rubber a little at the top? If it is not making good contact, you can tip the window in slightly at the top. Search window tip in adjustment. It can be done with the door panel on.

I had taken my vert to a body shop to get the windows properly adjusted. After the worked on it for two days, they called the Chevy rep. he told them there is nothing they can do to make a very not leak! So, I keep a small towel in my car. If I get caught in the rain, I place the towel on my left leg to stay dry...
