Previous owner put a new top on the convertible metro, the problem is the window seals aren't tight and are going to leak when it rains. Any tips? When the windows roll up, there is just not a tight seal happening. |

first i'd try to adjust the door striker plates to see if the doors would pull in a little. you can completely adjust the doors at the hinges and the strikers. if there is rust at the fronts of the rocker panels and/ or bottoms of the door posts all bets are off. you would have to repair the structural damage before you could make any attempt to adjust the gaps out of the windows. |
