Ive seen many T-Tops with that little weatherstripping at the top all chewwed up. Mine is beginning to bend inward and prevents my window from fully closing and rolling up. How can i fix that?

I'm pretty sure you're going to have to look into getting a new set. my driver side is pretty messed up. i just wedge it up in there...

 

I think your talking about the rain guard?? If so.. you pretty much need to buy one.. as its rubber and thus expands in the sun and contracts at night when its cool.. and after years of this.. it gets all nasty and there is nothing you can really do.. I just had mine replaced and for some reason (which im not complaining) they order in a hard plastic set.. and they certainly don't look like they are goin south any time soon .. so if you get new ones .. (they were 50 bucks each canadian plus install) try to get the hard plastic ones..

 

The hard plastic versions were what was used on the '91 and '92 T-Tops.

Do you have any part #'s for what you ordered? I need a set for my glass T-Tops.

that's the part I've been looking for.!!!
If anyone knows the part numbers or aftermarket supplier put it out here. That seems to be a real common problem.

My weatherstripping on my T-Tops are really really excellent actually, just my drivers side is bent inward about 1 inch from the end, and it wont stretch out again.

You're wanting part #4 (seal strip). You should be able to get them from the dealer they should be about $30 a side p/n's

10198352 &
10198353



For like $140 you can get a complete GM T-top seal kit for both sides from TAcreations, I ordered one & find it well worth the price.

Well im saying i dont wanna replace em. They're in good condition aside from one little part of it. I was wondering if theres a chance it could be fixed? Like a rubber/vinyl/plastic softener?
