Jezz Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Get this every time it rains. I should imagine nic (import pimp) may be able to get these new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeropete Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 i have this same trouble most of the time mate. it all depends on the way i put the roof back on tho?? i used to just sit the roof back on and jus do the bolts up equaly. now i gotta sit the roof on, then climb inside grab both sides of the roof, and push it right back in tight and make sure the front lines up perfect to the sides of the font window. Then start by tightening up the back two bolts first then the front two. i know it sounds like it doesnt make alot of difference but it works for me. well if it does leak its nothing alot like it used to. good luck sorting out your leak mate:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digsy Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Mine sometimes leaks in the corners at the top of the A-pillars. I can fix it by rubbing some rubber grease on the face where the seals on the windscreen hoop and roof touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedroby Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 It depends on the way you fot it. Fit it like the insctruction booklet says. That will make sense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_supra Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Mine leaks sometimes too, as said above I guess it's down to how it's re-fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are meant to drop down at about 60 mph. Alot don't due to age or someone bending them a bit when fitting roof. Stick em down with a bit of blu-tack. You could always go ask a guy called mark on the supraforums US side if you can remove them.

Jezz Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 They didnt make a rhd manual aerotop mate. 6k for an n/a auto aero sounds about right though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
