Can't find the original post on this so I've done another!

I posted a few of weeks ago about Reggies roof getting worse in the leaks department. I turned the tension screws as suggested by a couple of members and it did help a little but if parked for a long period in the rain there was literally a puddle in the passenger seat.
After speaking to @Lee on the euro cruise he suguested putting bike puncture repair patches on the joints of the roof to compress it all together when closed. I have washed the car today and had a good go with the hose around the A pillars and the windows.
Not a drop into the car! Absolutely chuffed to bits, total cost....... £2.15!
A big thanks to Lee for his advice, top work mate. That's 2 litres of Belgium beer lol!!

Nice fix mate

Nice fix mate

Can't believe how effective it is and so simple.

 

[Lee]

Keep it simple. It's all about the simple cheap fixes.

You have to have an engineering mind to come up with these things tho @Lee which I lack! Common sense stuff like that is so easy to do but coming up with the solution is so hard!

Done this with mine, seems to work pretty well

Nice to have someone else happy with it, did you do all the folding joints or just the A pillars?

 

[g8jka]

Just the A pillars and I've caked the rest with gummi pledge. I could do with maybe doing one on the drivers side as it still weeps slightly, but only with a pressure washer.

Only time it's rained and the car has been outside since doing the repairs it showed the test didn't work too well...
The interior was soaked, but that was because I left the roof down

Doh! Hope it's not to bad?

No, all is fine only a light shower and not for too long. Done it before and probably again in the future.
