Cali top leak

[kensinva]

My cali top is leaking from the drain tubes in the front roof stantions. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove the stantion covers.
Thanks,
Ken

if you are refering to the black trim pieces on the inside of the car - along the sides of the windsield - I believe you just pull them off (gingerly).. right or wrong, thats how a mechanic did it on my car.

but you may wanna try & unclog the drain tubes first...

Is this common with the cali tops (do a lot of them leak)?

If it's leaking from the drain tubes, they're probably clogged up.
Try taking an air compressor, get a good seal on the tube and try to blow the crap out.

I did try and run a wire down them, but it seemed to end up in nowhere land. I figured the tube had cracked/broken. Has anyone replaced these?

if they are metal you could solder them or weld them

[kensinva]

Does anyone know if these tubes are metal or rubber?
