Al,
I had this problem also after replacing the seal. Would hear a pretty
annoying - after a while - wind whistle coming from the top of the wind screen
/ top mounting area. I found a simple fix. Went to my local hardware store
and bought 1/4 inch high density adhesive backed foam strip. I carefully
places it along the leading edge of the top's bracket, trying to match the
contour about 1/2 inch from the edge. It worked, cut the wind noise out
completely, but did make the top just a little harder to close at the start,
tho' now it's well compressed, shuts okay, and still no wind noise.
