Since you have several leaks and it is to the point where it is causing damage, I would suggest taking the car to a good convertible top or trim shop. Make sure you take it to the best one in your area and that they are familiar with working on Mustangs and are not all snobby about preferring jags and beamers... You can adjust the tension on the two snap clips at the front that hold down the leading edge. Other than that I do not think there are any other adjustment points. Clean, inspect, and refasten the seals as necessary that is all you can really do. Perhaps you are missing some clips or trim fasteners? Also, the windows themselves ARE adjustable. I am not sure if that is an issue for you but the vertical travel and the in/out at the top can be adjusted, the Haynes manual shows how. I really think the best course of action is to take it to a shop but you may be able to correct it using the suggestions I made above. A better description of the exact leak areas with pics would help...
See?! This is why I posted, becuase I knew somebody had to be experiencing the one of the leak I'm dealing with. Near the driver's sside speaker is one of the known leak sources. What do you clean the seals with? Have a couple shops my husband actually does trade work with from time to time that are familiar with mustangs, Thanks! Will take pictures this weekend, as my camera and I are about 2 and a half hours apart right at the moment. I am going to definitely try these suggestions first, see if I can reslove the leaks so all I hafta worry about is replacing carpet. In another note, did find one of the mysterious leaks at the back seat drain plug being clogged beyond belief with sound deadening stuffing. Awesome to find one of them, Now hopefully once the known are solved with the above suggestions, and the rest of the unkown hopefully being other drain plugs, I'll be one step closer to not wanting to throw my great find turned lemon car off a short cliff. Thanks to all!
Hi, I just make sure when i wash the car to open the doors and clean all the seals and windows with a damp shami and it seems to work. But it could be your window needs adjusting based on other comments by Kilgore T. Good luck and please share with us when you resolve the leaks.
