The front one that goes across the top of the windshield and down the doors. The one that you can not find...

don't jump too much ...
the car will still leak. from the rear window and the seam between the front seal and the top side seals.
and that is if the rest of your seals are in good condition! if not, it'll leak everywhere ...
good news is, once the floorpans are rusted through, you won't have any standing water in the cabin anymore ...

I saw one on ebay, last time I checked the bidding was up to 450 bucks.
That's ok. Boxsters leak also! They are also rusting in the floorpans!

I must protest! Yours will rust but not mine. I installed a 22 guage 4X5 SINGLE sheet of galvenized metal and sealed all around for good measure! Some other parts were added for strength and it ways half the stock did.

Simple solution...everone buy a 916 and you don't need the seal anymore..........

Just don't drive it in the rain
I hate to show my age here, but we had the same problems with 356's. Easy solution: Install floor drains. The water will always get in, these cars rust because the water can't get OUT.

That is what the PO of my car told me I should do, they rust from the inside out, so put in drains at the low spots.
