o-bus,
I don't have them, but try searching the threads for "safari leaking", and you will find a plethora of postings. |

| you are correct, Sir!!! Yeah- got it home on Fri after it broke down Thurs(clogged fuel tank screen) Drove like a champ Fri. but leaked like Titanic. Now i need to get the Safaris leakproof, fix the outside mirrors, get some tires, and work on the sunroof. I would like to start body work this winter. I hope to see you at Englishtown!!! |

www.oldcars.co.jp these japanese guys have a very good seal for safari windows.This hint was given to me from vintage@pcsys.net in the "safari, million $ question" thread.Hope this may help you, but bear in mind that only OG safaris or very good repros like CE or others I don't recall at the moment won't leak.It also depends on fitting procedures.Good luck
