Hello all, Well, now that I have new tires for the Fastback and have replaced all of the fuel hoses and adjusted the brakes, the beast is once again operational and acting as my daily ride. However, all the rain we've had recently has brought a new problem to the forefront: my windshield seal leaks...a lot. I know the usual culprits of water inside the car are clogged air box drain tubes. However, I'm pretty certain that it's the windshield seal leaking (also, my windshield is fogged around the lower corners, indicating that at least some moisture has infiltrated the seal). I called Safelite today as they replaced the seal on my old 69 Square; however, the woman there told me that this windshield is NLA. Has anyone had a windshield replaced by Safelite in the recent past? If so, what type of seal did they use? I'd like to retain the stock look of the seals, so Cal Look is out. I know I can do this job myself, but this is one of those things where the frustration involved is worth paying someone else to deal with. Plus, Safelite's guarantee means that if it leaks the first time I can take it back to them. Thoughts? Thanks, - Doug :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
