Bill;
I've heard one main reason for these to leak is the 4 drain tubes get
plugged with crud. Try flushing them out first. It's much easier, might fix
the leak, but won't do a thing for the wind noise.

> I purchased a replacement seal kit that was recommended from a member on
shoforum.  I haven't had a chance to install it yet though.  The price for
this kit was much cheaper the the ford seal, I think I paid around $60.  I
can try and find out what company I got it from this weekend.
