I've got a squeek coming from my drivers side rear roll down window. I think it's just the window rubbing against the older rubber because if I crack the window it stops.
Has anyone else had ths problem? I'm thinking of replacing the rubber around the windows. But I think that might be really expensive and I'm not sure where would be the best place to get new window rubber for a 00' GT Convertable.
Any suggestions?
 
One of the drawbacks of owning a convertible is the additional cleaning and maintenance of the parts of the top. Anyway, take the time to thoroughly clean and condition all of the rubber on the top and window areas with 303 Aerospace Protectant. Do not use greasy, dirt attracting "armor all" type products. This will help a lot. If necessary take it to a good body and trim shop and let the pros adjust your top and windows.
 
try to tighten up your latches on your windshield header. That may tighten it up some. With mine i have to loosen/tighten as the weather changes to deal with expansion and contraction from the weather. Otherwise mine will rattle over bumps. Also like said above...take care of your rubber all the way around the top. Once it dries out it will squeal and crack and eventually leak.
