Windshield leak?
I have a question about my winshield seal. I have a leak and when I inspected it I noticed the seal is not holding the windshield tight into position...and just a little pressure against the glass will cause movement. Will a new seal correct this, or can a glass shop do something with the current seal? The current seal looks ok...but maybe it's worn out.

Bump....
Also, if I order the seal through Pelican is this a DIY or will I need to take it to a shop for the install?

Sounds like a good time to check for the dreaded rust. A leak & movement of the windshield doesn't sound too encouraging. It's not too hard of a job to replace a windshield. Do a search.

I don't know about you glass moving around. But the factory recomends that you put 2 beads of urinthane around the outside. One on the windhield side and one on the body side. You might go to a glass co to have that done first if it needs it.

Thanks everyone!
I had a friend look at it and together we noticed zero rust, that I expected since the car is very clean and rust free. But we did notice there was also zero beads of urinthane around the outside...so I bet this is the issue. I am going to take it and have this done at a shop Monday. Thanks again.
