Default ATTN: del Sol Owners

I own a 93 del Sol S. As most of you know, the roof leaks pretty badly. This car is without a doubt one of the most reliable cars I've ever owned and I don't want to get rid of it, but the roof is pissing me off. I priced out new seals and the front alone was about $121 from Honda. I'd need to replace a few and I'd be spending an assload of money if I do this.

Has anyone replaced the seals and been able to stop the leak? Is there any way to "reinforce" the current seals? Tips/tricks/etc?

might help, who knows...

Searched a bit and all I found was a link to a dead site and that the seals cost in total around 400-500$ total.

Thanks!

it helps, also try putting black silicone in the corner parts in the front part of the seals (the front corner or curve of the window.) Look for any spots that are cracked or not attached to the car and just put silicone.
