windows bending outwards
Discussion
i'm sure i've seen this discussed before, but can't find it with the search engine.
in erm....... germany, when i go over a certain speed the windows bend outwards, especially on the driver's side. i've had a look, and could swear that my tamora had been fitted with the wrong windows. this probably isn't the case but i'll check when it goes into londontvr this weekend for heater flap surgery.
has anyone noticed the same thing and been able to rectify it?

Tamore, the top of the window should be central on the rubber roof seal when stationery, there should be a small plastic tab halfway along the rubber seal to guide the window inwards,if window is not central on the rubber strip it can be easily adjusted all ways to fit central at the top seal once the door card is removed,takes about half an hour to do.
I get exactly the same thing.
If the solid roof section is not sitting centrally it is even enough to pull the window past the roof seal at 120 plus*. (Just back from Christmas lunch so possibly not the most flowing explanation)
There was a post on here a while about the fastest people had ever been in their TVR's, at least one Tamora owner said that the angle that the window was leaning out made him slow down before the car ran out of puff.
Roof off, windows down is the easy solution but not as pleasant this time of year...

- km/h, obviously.
I used to get this a lot too- scared me some times thinking this window is about to explode with the stresses bending it out sooo much.
After discussing modding the roof with "Surface & Design" a month or so ago it turns out I've not been locating the roof panel central ALL the time I've had the car.
Doesn't do it now (when roof put on properly)....
The little plastic tabs hold it in place to over 1.5 leptons
