Leaky Roof

Since I've owned my 93 delsol (I have owned it 5 years), I get a small amount of leakage through the driver's side portion of the roof at the top corner of the window. Does anyone know the fix for this?

Yep! Duct tape LOL Ummm chances are you just need to replace your weather strips. Check to see if it is torn or compressed compared to the other side. Hope that helps.

I fixed my ex's with some silicone caulk. It comes in black, so it won't show up. Cut the tip off fairly short so you get a relatively large output, and apply and let dry. Works great.

YEAH I THINK ITS THE WEATHERSTRIPS. I THINK THEY CAN BE BOUGHT FOR A FAIR AMOUNT OF MONEY AT THE DEALER AND THE INSTALLATION SHOULDN'T BE TOO HARD. KNOW ALSO THAT NEW WEATHERSTRIPS WILL NOT ONLY BLOCK THE RAIN BUT ALSO THE ROAD NOISE. PEACE.

My Fiance had the same problem on her olds. I used some silicone and it doesn't leak anymore. Its a cheap fix it.

Might you be referring to ME?? I know you always TALKED about fixing my seals, but you never actually DID. But, hell I'd be more than happy if you could help me out... Unless... wait, you MUST have been talking about your OTHER girlfriend with a del sol huh?? Silly Me! Just kidding babe :p Anyway, I would love it if you could help me, my seats are being destroyed by the rain!

Hehe... right. Talked about fixing yours, actually fixed Adam's friend's roof. I get confused at 5 AM. Had you been nice to me, maybe I would have fixed yours, too. Now you're on your own. Good luck.
