my vert leaks in the frontmost corner of the drivers window and in the very middle of the windshield ledge, where the plastic molding that wraps around the inside has a seam.

Mine leaks where I need to replace the weather stripping, but haven't had a chance. It will also start to leak in the front where the top meets the windsheild if I am going like 70 and it is raining. At 80 or so there is a good amount of wind coming through there as well.

Welcome to the wonderful world of leaking verts.

just gotta deal with it.

new weather stripping would help, its on my list of things to do.
Ford sells a nice complete kit.

the split in the weather stripping mid window where the top
folds is notorius for leaking.

Mine doesn't leak to bad in the normal rain but don't EVER take it through a car wash...holy cow you will get soaked LOL. Only had one experience like that on the road...it was when I drove my Stang cross country from NY to my new home in Denver, somewhere on I-80 through Nebraska a wicked Thunderstorm came out of nowhere and as I was driving water just started pouring though gap between the top and the winshield, couldn't even see it was coming down in sheets! So yeah, vert's LEAK!! [:@]
