T350T Panel seals
Discussion
Hi there guys, thought this would be the most obvious place to post.
Recently bought a t350t and have a slight problem with the targa panels.
The rubbers on the outside (if that makes sense) are well.......not attatched shall we say.
Has any one else with a 'T' had this problem, or can anyone recommend a substance to secure the outerseals down with without look to messy??
Many Thanks

cheers for the reply.
i had a little read of your profile and just wandered how you got rid of the whistle? i've had my panels in and out a few times and still not having any luck getting rid of it.
also, i understand they made some improvements to the targa's with the later models by attaching some front clips to keep the panels from coming off at higher speeds. now im not sure what they look like but i presume that's what these are for in the picture below from my car? (on the roll cage towards the corner join)
can anyone inform me if and how you can still get the sections that attach to the targa panels please
any help would be greatly appreciated

What year is your 350? Mines a late 2004 build (54 plate) and has what I believe to be the updated clips, though I have no idea at all what the clip is on your side roll bar.
I get zero wind noise from mine unless I hit silly speeds, though you do need to get them seated right to ensure this.

Same here - I have brackets to the front which look a bit like yours but are chrome coloured, none on the sides, then 2 at the rear with silly 'cam' shaped thingys that tighten into place. IMO the picture shown here indicates that this car has been modified to improve the fit/noise/stop it falling out at speed. What year is the car?

its a 53 plate.
i think thats what they where intended for but it may have had new ones fitted in that case as the panels dont have any way of fastening the panels to the clips. it just has those cam shaped screw in sections like yours and those prongs at the front.
Whatever the case, it looks like you've got enough 'clippage' to tighten the top down (2 more than most of us!). Can you see light from any point looking through the panel seal from the inside? What does the rubber seal on the roof and the ones on the panel look like?i think thats what they where intended for but it may have had new ones fitted in that case as the panels dont have any way of fastening the panels to the clips. it just has those cam shaped screw in sections like yours and those prongs at the front.
