having problems with t tops

no matter what i do, i cannot get the driver side to seal right. when i go down the road i can hear air blowing up under it. the back of the top acuaully lifts up while going down the down. all the weatherstripping on that side looks okay. the only thing that i see wrong is that both corners of the glass are chipped a little. would that cause it to not seal???? if so, i quess i have to get a new top. were is the best place, or can i get an estimated price???

You should be able to adjust the t-tops to pull down some more I believe, I think where the t-tops latch you can adjust those 2 pieces and lower the latch points for the t-tops. You may just need new t-top seals, but not a new t-top.

the mounting holes have two bolts on each one, just take that little plastic interior trim to get to the back ones.

if your t-tops are actually cracked, you might want to find a replacement, but first get them adjusted and see if they still leak.
