Q: Roof leak in rear quarter of hard top.
Rear roof arm is leaking. Mostly when stationary. I have not peeled the fabric back to see whether it is the top seam or bottom seam, but the water does seem to collect in the footwell on that side.Have you seen this before, and are you able to ballpark the cost? I am upside down in the vehicle, so making it someone else's problem is not realistic.
