My top is badly leaking on the passenger side where the top seal above the window meets the seal going down the side of the window. I'm not soo positive it is the seal though. When I look at the drivers side window and top, i see the top overhangs the window a lot on that side. but on the passenger side it is not overhanging at all. Is it possible for the top to shift to one side, or is it possible that the top shrunk. Either way can this be fixed.

Mine's doing practically the same thing on the driver's side. I'm going to take the door apart next weekend and try to work on the window alignment some. I'll let you know how things come out.

You should be able to align the top of the door glass to correct the problem.

Sounds like what we experienced when we took delivery of our SS.

It ended up the rubbery piece of molding that's just inside the door where the door, glass and top all meet. No problem since we replaced it w/a new piece.

Mine was leaking somewhere near the driverside door- the top would seal shut tight but it leaked like a SOB even while washing the car. Turned out that the door needed to be realigned.
