my previous write up (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?139420-all-in-one-del-sol-leakage-fix-up) that u might be interested
if method A doesnt fix yr leak at the tip of the little triangle
here's the ultimate solution which is tested by myself just tonite
it didnt leak at all even under high pressure rinse in the carwash

**warning, do it at yr own risk**
the following procedures requires prying out the seal a bit
plz be very careful not to fk it up
the new seal will cost u a fortune
2nd hand will still cost 200+ depending on condition

first of all sorry for the insufficient amount of photos and bad quality
i was in my workshop bored this afternoon
didnt think of doing such so hvnt got my camera in hand

ok enuf bullcrap...
u will need a pair of scissors, cloth and double sided tape for this DIY

the red area is where the rubber originally sitting in
it's inside the seal, u will need to pry out the seal a bit to pull it out
the rubber is hollow inside and i used some cloth to fill it up
reason why the triangle is leaking is becoz the supporting rubber inside the seal is no longer bouncy enuf
after years of slamming it's out of its shape, cant make the seal completely water tight
the cloth i fill into the hole can make it supportive enuf again...
(sorry for my bad english but hope u can understand wt i mean...)
u can use anything u wud like as long as it's flexible plus supportive

after all these u can put the supporting rubber back into the place
use the double sided tape the stick the seal back onto the A-pillar (if needed)
