t-top rattle elimination?

[madhat]

Especially as it warms up, as I drive down the road, my t-tops jsut sit there and rattle and grumble and whatnot - is there any good way to stop this? I thought about jsut getting some rubber and stuffing it in there with the things that grab the body and lock them on.

You an try adjusting the two chrome end pieces to help. I think another problem is the rubber is hard and that doesn't help either.

I've done that - but it wasn't proper GM stuff, so I got lots of wind noise etc...

Get a hardtop car, you will eliminate those rattles!

I've thought about it! - atleast get a hard top roof and make a big sunroof the size of the tops since I dont take them off much anyway....

I think Kirban has some rattle eliminator strips that you add to the edge of the glass that puts pressure on it and the vehicle.

No rattles here by I also have new weatherstripping.
