You should be able to adjust the rear mounting brackets to eliminate most air leaks. Just loosen the bolts and adjust the position of the bracket. Tighten them back up in the new position and do a test drive. Keep trying until you get the best position.
Good luck.

After removing my HT for the summer, I developed a leak on the driver's side that was a wind whistling noise. Before this, it was nice and tight.
The problem was the back lever on the driver's side wasn't latched all the way. Even a slight amount of turn helps a lot.

I agree. I had one of these on my old hardtop and a few minutes of adjusting solved the wind noise.
