Ha!  I want the weather stripping for the moonroof...dammit!  Thank goodness the afternoon Florida rains haven't been too harsh yet!  (thumbing through the catalog for weather stripping...)  :)



the weather stripping only keeps the wind noise down realy, when it leaks its because its out of adjustment, or your moon roof drains are cloged. u can un clog them by hosing compressed air in the drains behind it. also their are adjuster clips on the sides of the track. you got to mess with them tho to get it to seat rite.

Car looks nice!  If you took a buffing wheel to the paint and cleaned them headlights up it would look even better!



Very true.  The paint is something else to be desired.  Its one of those $100 paint (orange peel) jobs.  There's even some overspray on the door glass by the mirrors.  The car has a long way to go before I'm satisfied.  This will be a project, no doubt.  As far as the headlights, I've cleaned them up some with 800, 1200, 1400 grit sanding (dry&wet) and then a polisher after that.  It helped but they all need some more elbow grease.  Who knows...I may just buy new lights all the way around. 

Thanks!

Thanks for the tip!  I'll check it out and see if it needs some adjusting...and get those drains unclogged.
