Well I'm enjoying some of the finest Irish wheater and... just realized that my TF leaks a bit under heavy rain... Specially in the passengers side just next to the wing mirror... :nonod: It soakes the speaker mesh and the carpet. Any advice on this? How can I fix it? I'm intending to change the whole roof it's in very good condition just I don't like the frame because is a bit rusty. Will it cure the problem? I'm intending to do that later in the year... (I would prefer to change Exhaust front bumper and tyres first) Can I do something in the meantime? Thanks guys

I have a similar problem Sergi. It could be this >>> How to replace a leaking window cheater.

You need to ensure that the window itself is correctly adjusted.
It is a bit of a black art, tbh.

There's a picture here and here showing how the glass should meet the seals.
