^^^ Interesting about the T-Top weatherstripping.
You don't see many of these cars in a junkyard, especially verts. Even if I found one I doubt the weather stripping would be any good, I mean if mine is going bad and its a garage kept car I can't imagine the awful condition the weatherstripping on a junkyard car must be.
Does anyone know where I can get new weatherstripping besides going to the dealership and bending over?

I was pointed to Ecklers a couple months back by a member here.
I am in the process of replacing mine. I think one of the strips I ordered had a soffseal paper data sheet in the package.

I decided that 
My top is leaking in the location circled in red.
The window glass is not pressing up against the weatherstripping rubber like on the front portion of the window which was not leaking. That's whats causing the leak.
More closeups (Sorry the focus is a bit off and they're hard to see clearly):
I tried to adjust the weatherstripping, reapplied silicone and all, didn't seal. There's no way around it I'm going to have to replace it.
This diagram was taken from gmpartsdirect, I guess what I need is #17 and #18.
The total for these items for both sides is over $500 dollars, there's no way I'm paying that. Could I be reading this wrong? I find these prices hard to believe.
Wait, Ecklers carries fbody stuff?
I think that's it. I'm going to give them a call tomorrow and see. Thanks a lot.
