I stopped mine from leaking by cleaning the groove in the weatherstrip that runs down the front edge of the side window. There is a drainage path in this weatherstrip that lets water drain down from the t-top and it was plugged with dirt and tree pollen.
It's been a long time since I had the t-tops apart but I think there might be an adjustment where the lock rods come out or else on the plate on the body that the rod slides into.
