    You haven't specified where the leak is showing inside. Is it near bottom of door etc.

    I had a leak on my Cabrio and it was caused by the seal between the roof and windscreen top failing to seal. I fitted a totally new full seal onto the roof edge and its been fine since.
    2000 Marlin Cabrio LWB; 2.0 L Burton Pinto in Ford Nightfire Red with Magnolia leather interior.

      Which model of Marlin? My last Cabrio [JR07LOT] used to drip water on my left lower leg. Finally found the problem when I replaced the windscreen for a tinted one I had. Original builder had been too sparing with sealant on lower edge which only became evident on removal of screen .

            Try and work out exactly where its leaking could be the hood or the bulkhead or the wiper spindle .
            the last resort would be taking the screen out of a roadster.

                Sorry to say a Roadster will always leak.

                You have to have a sense of humour to own a Roadster.

                Just enjoy.

                  Anyone looking for a car that doesn't leak too much, Danny Nelson has the blue Cabrio that Liz and Bob owned for a long while, weather gear is awesome on that car.
