My drivers side has always dripped a few drops on my forearm - supposed to wipe the weatherstrip down periodically with dialectric silicone grease, one of these days I'll remember to get some and try it.

I have a link I can PM (non sponsor) to get weatherstripping. I recommended it to someone else and they were pleased with it so I figure I would throw it out to you guys as well. The price seems pretty decent too

Definitely do the dielectric grease first. You should grease your weatherstripping every year. It didnt completely fix my leaks but it greatly reduced them. If you have a t-top car, leaking is something you have to live with unless you want to pay hundreds of dollars for new weatherstripping every few years.

I fixed my leaks by cleaning the channel in the weatherstrip that runs down the front of the window. The water is supposed to channel down the front and mine had built up some debis in the channel. Open the door and pull the weatherstip open and you will see the channel.
