Leaking targa top.........
My targa top is leaking pretty bad. Does anyone know of a good place to purchase new weatherstriping? I have located the ones for the top and the b-pillar but i cant find the one that runs up the a-pillar by the windshield. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Holy Cow!!! I found it on Mid America and few other sites. Its about 600 bucks. Why so much for the front? The top 2 sides and the rear b pillar are around 100. Oh well. Thanks for the input. If anyone else knows of a good place please chime in.

Yes, it's high. As much as I enjoyed the targa, that's the price you pay for owning one.
If you take out the target top often, expect replace the seals and weather stripping about every two years.
You can get a little extra life if you keep a light clear silicone protectant on the weather stripping and seals. Using this technology you might be able to get three to four years between changes or it will start leaking again and rattling again.
