Hmm, searched the forum, couldn't find anything. Tried again after reading your posting. Looks as if I'm not able to find.

I had the same problem with the 73 series but was able to seal it from the outside and it hasnt leaked since but my 75 series is rusted on the inside and will be coming out soon, steel roof intact

Yeah, that's the second option I have. Sealing it means making it impossible to lower the window, but OTH I've never used that.
Think I will have too look into the costs of the sills before deciding.
Thanks.
Edit: One way or another this posting didn't make it before Xray posted.
Thanks for the pics Xray. I knew which bolts I had to undo (I recently tightened them, securing with a bit of locktite, because some squeeking noises (the frame rubbing against the sills?) developed. Especially some of the topbolts had to te be tightened a bit and the sound disappeared.
Big question I had was or the frame would slide out without removing the FRP-top, even better, will it go in without damaging the cleaned(?) or replaced (new?) seals.
If I have to remove the FRP-top I think I go for a sealant, if not, I think I will replace the seal ($$$?).
