I figured out there is big rubber weatherstrippng that goes around the convertible top frame .....ordered it from ebay.....another problem arose....the convertible top frame is bent. Most likely from somebody jumping on it to get it down

Don't know about the frame but wonder if it can be heated, straightened and tempered?
