Auto Body Shops: Who can you trust?
I need some body work done to my car. My T-Tops are leaking only when parked on an angle (my drive way has a steep incline). I need my leaks diagnosed. I tried and failed several times to find the leaks. I don't know any good auto body shops near Revere, MA 02151.

might be worth while to get a new set of seals than to pay a shop to go searching on your car to possibly tell you the same thing dunno.gif

I know of a place where I live but it may be a bit of a hike for you from Revere.


I can't replace the seals and have to do it all over again

good luck buddy. 400 dollars in new t-top rubbers and window trim and my t-tops still leak.

The 3rd gen Ttop option was GM most wanted yet most problemetic option they had to offer. My suggestion to you is to look into brand new GM seals. DO NOT BUY JUNK!!!! You mentioned you cant replace the seals though. How come?

Can you tell exactly where the water is getting in? Remove the headliner and have someone pour water from a hose on your car and look around for the leak. Sometimes the leak can come in from the hatch too so look for that. Also, if your windows dont go up high enough then they wont seal up tight to the ttop which will cause water to leak in.
Nick?

replaced mine on my old firebird and never had a problem with them after that.

they were pricey though.

mine leaked near the locks if it matters at all.

my uncle bought a camaro from the factory and it leaked when he bought it.
