I have tried adjusting the side windows every which way. There is absolutely no sag in the doors.

Turns out this morning we had a down pour when I need to bring my car in for an inspection.

I replaced the side window rubber from (Mikey) but I'm thinking that the top rear gasket needs to be replaced. I just looked at another 914 and it seems to sit much lower.

Also the point above the vent wing has a gap, does this mean the top window rubber needs to be replaced or does the front rubber on the window frame need replacement

What do you think?

Pictures have been attached for this morning.

The rear portion of the top should be lower and sit nicely on the roll bar. The 45 degree angle at the rear end of the top window rubber seal should sit nicely against the 45 degree angle of the rear vertical seal. You might want to provide close up pictures of every junction area (front, rear window corner/roll bar).

That being said, 914s are known to leak... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) You might want to look into one of the member vendor here for an "umbrella" to keep it dry. Like a hat, it covers the whole cabin.
