Convertible Leak

My car leaks from the top of the passenger side window, near the convertible latch. I seem to have noticed the problem shortly after I had the window motor replaced.

Is it possible that it was installed incorrectly in such a way that the window does not make a proper seal with the weather stripping?

Is it probably just the weather stripping itself?

Does the convertible latch not hold as tight as time goes on?

Any help would be appreciated -- my girlfriend is tired of getting wet.

hmmmm... For some reason my girfriend doesn't mind getting wet

Um back to the subject matter. Sounds like you need new weatherstriping, I believe hawks (the link at the top of the page) has some in stock. I need to buy all new, but don't have the $2k laying around right now
