Castle Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 ok so i got the courage to try and take apart my roof and tighten the bolts inside which make all the banging:mad: ..... ....well i chickened out when i got half of the sticky rubber crap off (the bit that's meant to be non reusable) Shall i get some new sticky rubber crap before trting again or just reuse it?? oh and i'm getting quite a bit of drip coming in from the join on the driver's side in the front corner - any fix for this?? Thanks:thumbs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 new door rubbers from mr T ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Posted April 30, 2004 Author Share Posted April 30, 2004 is that what i need? i thought it would be the roof rubbers for the drip any advice on the roof rattle fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 roof and door i guess then ... as for the rattle, i took it to a mechanic who used a combo of strong glue and that white tape over the screws (mine were stripped then) .. not the best method i guess but it worked.

Castle Posted April 30, 2004 Author Share Posted April 30, 2004 these bits are the sticky black rubbers bits, i think i might have to get some new ones but everyone on here just seems to reuse them:conf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 my advice would be to get new ones but maybe someone else has a better idea as i am not THAT tech minded mate. i saw the problem starting on mine so replaced the rubbers in their entirety but i suppose a good glue should do (unless glue hardens the rubber that is ..).

Castle Posted April 30, 2004 Author Share Posted April 30, 2004 ok mate cheers, i think everyone has different ideas about this. I read someone saying they don't get any leeks because they tighten the roof on by the back bolts first:baa: guess it's just luck of the draw:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 i've tried to tighten the bolts with every combo known to man but still got the dreaded drip so went to replace all .... good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
