Thanks Martin
I nipped down to the local scrapyard this aft and picked up some long door
seals to cut to size.
Ive made what I hope to be a good connection round the door and hard top and
put a bead of silicon across the roof meet point
Hopefully the rain will hold off long enough for it to dry and I can put it
to the test tomorrow

ISTR when Jago did a hard top for their jeep, that they recommended waxing
the body, and cleaning (with acetone or similat) the hardtop. Then put a bead
of silicone along the joint, put the 2 together and wait 24hrs. When removed
you have a perfect seal on the hardtop! and nothing on the car body. Sounds
like a good move to me, but I don't know if it works. I'd certainly try it
myself if I had a need.

Subject: [Quantum Owners] Too much rain (hard top query)
I've got to the point where I have puddles in the front and rear drivers
side on the 2+2. I've checked the drain plugs in the doors and think the soft
top has pretty much given up being weatherproof. It's a KAP one and it's
probably as good as ever, just the pure amount of rain we're having is
overwhelming it. There doesn't seem to be any let up in the weather on the
horizon, I don't have a garage and a tarp is going to disappear down the
street.
I have a hard top, it's supposedly the better of the two options, so I
fancy digging it out and fully weatherproofing it. What's the best way to do
this?
I seem to remember a previous 2+2 I had, the owner siliconed the point
where the hard top meets the roof line, which while it was a bugger to get off,
worked nicely. He also ran two channels down the side of the hard top past the
window frame to catch water I presume and either send it over the front or rear
of the roof.
What else have people found works well for them? Have you added extra
seals or done away with them and also siliconed?
Thanks
Andy
