Andy,
No inside it sits behind the balloon on the rubber seal, if you
look what happens to it, it gets squashed as it goes around the corner
and allows water that gets behind the header rail to come over the top
of the seal.

pillar?

Thanks Martin
I nipped down to the local scrapyard this aft and picked up
some long door seals to cut to size.
Ive made what I hope to be a good connection round the door
and hard top and put a bead of silicon across the roof meet point
Hopefully the rain will hold off long enough for it to dry and
I can put it to the test tomorrow

ISTR when Jago did a hard top for their jeep, that they
recommended waxing the body, and cleaning (with acetone or
similat) the hardtop. Then put a bead of silicone along
the joint, put the 2 together and wait 24hrs. When removed
you have a perfect seal on the hardtop! and nothing on the
car body. Sounds like a good move to me, but I don't know
if it works. I'd certainly try it myself if I had a need.

*Subject:* [Quantum Owners] Too much rain (hard top query)
I've got to the point where I have puddles in the
front and rear drivers side on the 2+2. I've checked
the drain plugs in the doors and think the soft top
has pretty much given up being weatherproof. It's a
KAP one and it's probably as good as ever, just the
pure amount of rain we're having is overwhelming it.
There doesn't seem to be any let up in the weather on
the horizon, I don't have a garage and a tarp is going
to disappear down the street.
I have a hard top, it's supposedly the better of the
two options, so I fancy digging it out and fully
weatherproofing it. What's the best way to do this?
I seem to remember a previous 2+2 I had, the owner
siliconed the point where the hard top meets the roof
line, which while it was a bugger to get off, worked
nicely. He also ran two channels down the side of the
hard top past the window frame to catch water I
presume and either send it over the front or rear of
the roof.
What else have people found works well for them? Have
you added extra seals or done away with them and also
siliconed?
Thanks
Andy
