[T3] Re-install windshield seal?
<x-html><!x-stuff-for-pete base="" src="" id="0" charset="iso-8859-1/macintosh"><html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">When I got my car back from the "restorers" (they put in a new headliner), I had some issues with the sunroof (it would not operate). ÊI have since resolved that issue, but now I have found that the windshield seal leaks. ÊThere are places in the seal (especially on the inside near the corners) where it looks like they had trouble with it (deformities in the rubber), plus the is a place on the outside where the edge of the rubber lip does not come into contact with the windshield. ÊThis may be where some of the water is getting in as it does not seem to leak when parked.<div><br></div><div>It seems to me a once-and-for-all fix would be to take everything out and put it back in again. ÊIs there another less invasive approach?</div><br><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; ">Chris Slaymaker</font></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; ">1971 Westfalia "Lurch"</font></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; ">1971 Squareback "Foster"</font></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; ">Knoxville, TN</font></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><br></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">"...at Least I'm enjoying the ride."</p></span> </div><br></body></html>
