    G'Day,
    Does anyone know where I can get new seals for the targa roof, I have a small drip that comes in at the D/S upper roof moulding, I'm not sure if there is an easy fix.

    $400 for 2 seals seems a bit pricey. Mine leaks and squeaks, but for that price i think ill just put up with it.

    There are many fixes for this peoblem that may work for you. I suggest the first thing you do when you have a question/peoblem is use the search function. Most of your questions would have been asked and answered many times already. A quick search threw up 23 posts on this subject

    The liberal application of Vaseline(yes, it does have other uses)to all of the roof rubber, will usually solve this problem for a reasonable time.:rolleyes::p:rofl::br:

    Try removing them then put in a bath 1/4 full of hot water and leave untill water cools. Do this 2 - 3 times then re-install and see how it goes.

    I have tried this on my leaking targa and it has reduced the problem, have had a similar report from another member, a few good applications and hopefully it will stop all together.

    Welcome to the ZX club. Just a little hint, most ZX forums have been peppered over the years with young wannabes asking silly obvious questions ad infinitum and then ignoring tried and tested solutions (the cars are 20 years old after all, how many NEW problems and fixes are going to show up). Just introduce yourself and contribute where you can, Use the search function and google. Get yourself along to any local area ZX meetings ro be really sociable
