I have a strange leak.. Water is collecting in the frame above the drivers window. It will leak out when the car moves, or when I open the top.. yesterday during the tropical storm I went to drive somewhere, and my left arm got completely soaked from a gallon of water while backing out of the driveway. Water is coming from the frame where circled in the picture. That part of the frame is hollow, but I don't know how water is getting in there. I see no holes in the vinyl. I suppose it must be seeping up between the top and the frame, but the gaskets look good, and I see no holes.


any thoughts?

Not that it helps but I've had this since the car was nearly new. Never found the problem. Tried to add some black RTV near the windshield gasket with no difference. I'm now wondering if it's entering at the joint you show in your picture rather than from the front.

You may be in need to foms shin etsu grease, it will plump the rubber areas around there and may prevent water from getting in. It is at least worth a trey if you havent done it in a while. On top of that its really cheep as well. You can get it from Your local Honda dealer for a few dollars. Good luck figuring it out man.

I have a tube, but rarely use it.. I did yesterday though all around that area, so we'll see.
