Wind noise ???

89 GTA ....I was just wondering. Does anyone know how to lessen the wind noise around the doors. My rubber is all good, I just can't tell were it is coming from. Any ideas? or do I just live with it?

I know its coming from the windows or rubbers, i m just not sure what to do about it

do you have t-tops....if so take the little plates that the pins go into and loosen them up.... move them down and tighten back up the flat edges of the tops catch wind and its a HORRIBLE loud whoosh noise ....i didnt realize where my nois was coming from til i was drifting off a BIG truck ....when i was behind it the noise stopped so try that.....if you have a hard top then but if its t topped then it may help :lala:

yeah i got that same problem... my t-tops dont leak but like to leak wind at 45mph and up but its only cuz the weather stripping is either old or just bunched up from the previous owner pushing on them or not knowing how to put them in or out, its an ez fix tho, im just goin to buy new weather stripping for it
