Cool Convertible water drip-flood

When it's raining and I'm opening the door on my 2005 GT There is one spot where water pours into the edge of my seat, It runs off the edge of the top. Anyone know of a edging or something that will divert the water down the front instead of into my interior? My top is still in great condition.

I think this is just the nature of soft tops. If the water is pooling in a low spot on the top, you might try pulling on the edge of the top, or bouncing the top with your hand to get the pool of water to run off before opening the door.

yeah, like john said... its kinda the nature of owning a vert. im pretty sure if you look at it, the water drips down where the top meets the windshield frame, because it creates a little indention there. im sure something could be done with the weatherstripping somehow, but it would be a pain. just be glad that it doesnt leak anytime it rains like my 94, but i still love her.
