I'm installing a new main Targa roof seal. The one that goes around the windshield frame. The side post section fit like a glove. The section along the top where the roof fits to the windshield frame has got me stumped. Is this glued? There seems to be some metal inside the rubber seal itself that I thought just squeezed tight to the metal frame, but I can't get it to work.
Advice would be great. Love this forum. So, far I've gotten advice on all topics that has allowed me to get this rebuild so near completion. Thanks, Dan |

That top section can be a pain to install. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
I had to take a flat blade screwdriver and, in a few areas, carefully widen the gap of the metal in the seal to get it to attach to the frame. Took a bit of trial and error but eventually got it to where the top mounts correctly and latches down. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
