Leaking Cabriolet
I seem to have some drippage coming via my roof. When the roof is up and it rains heavily water runs down the rubber seal at the top of the window. It then gets to the point where the roof joins the top of the windscreen. From there water drips onto my electric mirror switch which cant be good. Does anyone know how the water manages to get onto the rubber considering the roof overlaps it and by rights the water should just run off.

its a cabby, they are a sinking ship on land. They always let water in.
the water will be collecting at the beaded bit and seeping into the material then running along. Also the door seal tends to flip up a bit and can cause this as well. |

These do leak from time to time.
I bodged mine, Lifted the rubber and piped some clear mastic in, only a tad mind, then wipe off the residue mastic and you wouldnt know the difference, apart from it not leaking |
