"Pads" on targa top? wth?
 

Sold the top off my Z, guy got it tonight said there was no pads on it. I have no clue what these are, never heard of them. Theres some kind of weatherstrip on them if I remember right, headliner, thats it. Right?

Never leaked, had wind noise, not sure what this person is referring to. :dontknow:

Someone help me out here?

He may be talking about the little rubber pads just above the rear mounting bolts and the other two, one on passenger and drivers side. These are held on with double sided tape and usually fall off when the glue on the tape gets old. I am missing one myself on my painted top and two on my clear. The should be too hard to find and not very expensive.

Has to be those pads, I went looking I cant find them anywhere. The white sticky tape lets them go. When I bought my car I found them in the storage bin in the rear

Here is a picture of the top and it's clear which frame pads are missing. They didn't fall off in the box as I tore it apart with hopes they had.

Hmm, makes sense now I had never heard of those. I assumed someone had stuck something like a sun shade on there at some point and removed it,really never paid attention to it to be quite honest. Glad it got there in one piece, had to make him repackage it as the first attempt was crap.

Now that you mention it, I'm missing one on the passenger side on my clear top.
Anybody know where I can get one too?
