So i thought we would have a mild winter and put off re-greasing the rubber seals on the targo top. As you might guess i am regretting this now cause both sides are dripping water. Really Really bad and i dont have a garage anymore so i cant take the targa off to do re-grease it...Painnnnn

I feel your pain...and the dampness of my driver's seat. Two words: blue tarp! [img]graemlins/storm.gif[/img]
what those seals cost brand new????? Im going to have to replace mine i had to resort to black silicone to gett he water to slow down.
Do either of you have the upgraded seals ('95style up) on your cars is my first question? Second where is it leaking at?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Last time I checked around $300-350 for the front and two sides now (I replaced all four on mine for $220 when I did it, at the time the "stealership" wanted over $1k to do it, can you say RIP-OFF), usually the rear one is ok, but that's another $150 or so.Quote:

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You think that's a lot, they wanted $800 just for the seals alone and that was six years ago when I got that quote. So I don't think the $300-350 for them now is bad, but they have gone up in price over the years. And get this they don't even know how to install them at the dealer's, they screw up the install more times then doing them right, so they leak even more then before. I heard horror stories over the years about it,Quote:

I'll put it this way, it's a lot more involved then just replacing the seals to stop the leaks, believe me I know, a lot of other minor adjustments have to be done/checked at the same time to complete the job.
As to when I last checked on prices, about a year ago now.
