I have a Forbidden USA Mugen Style Hardtop and I cannot get rid of the annoying air leaks I have. I finally fixed the creaks and now I have to get rid of the air leaks. All this hot air getting is too much for the AC to handle and the noise alone is making me crazy. Just paid off my S a few days ago and would like to keep it for the long haul. I have tried Shin Etsu grease which has not helped. The leak in the front near the top of the windshield I believe I can figure out, but the one near the windows, (see picture) have me stumped and are the most noisy leaks I have.

I have checked out a few threads on here but have not found a clear solution, all help appreciated.

What brackets/latches are you using in the front?

JrJanowski

Using oem brackets in the front, and quick release rear.

Oats

On the OEM top the brackets that hold the weather stripping have slotted screw holes so you can adjust the seals to the window. Not sure if aftermarket tops have that or not.

They are put on with double sided tape. If you want to fill that gap, you could pull the seal and move it further out.
