Anyone else had this problem on a TG? in the bottom corners of the winderscreen it is leaking into the car. Should i just put silicon on the outside for now and get the new seal or what? |

yes put some silicone on it till you can afford to get NEW seals trust me i am doing the same thing and it has worked so far and it stands up to the pressure of two subs in the boot |

in some cases its not the seal but the sealer has come away. take it to a windscreen place and get it re sealed
could be a lot cheaper
cheers |

yeah mine started a few weeks ago so i just siliconed it up on the out side seams to do the job
if its really bad when siliconing it do the whole window but lift the rubber away with a coat hanger or somethign liek that and run the silicon under the actual seal |
