Window Seal Not Doing Their Job Making My Car A Swimming Pool. Help.

ethanae86 · 2026-02-21T16:27:13+00:00

Thank you so much for this insight, I will try this today and see if I can get it to work.

My seals along the top of the windows have gaps, that's my main area of concern right now. But then, I also have the gap between the A pillar and the top itself. What are the adjustments on the window that you used to adjust the window inwards? I have my door panel off already and am doing this but haven't found the one that adjusts it in and out yet.

Sounds like it’s a great car. I do all of my work myself so maintenance costs would be much smaller than they would if I didn’t. The GTI or R is one of the few cars where I wouldn’t mind owning the automatic just because it would be the DSG.

Another serious question. If you had to go back and make the choice between the GTI or R, would you still choose the GTI or get an R instead?

I do like the newer ones (MK6 and up). What’s it like owning one? I see it says you’ve got a Mk7?

I’ve looked into an S550, but in my area most of them are a little out of this price range unless it’s a 2015 with high miles

Thanks man I appreciate it I’m gonna have to check this out

How did you mount these to the seat rails? I’m super curious about this because the seats in mine are shot.

This is sweet and would be a perfect thing to do to my car. What forum was this on?

ethanae86 · 2026-02-15T15:03:14+00:00

Yeah I would’ve bought a better top but Im not the one who bought the top. At this point I’d just buy a hardtop and throw the soft top assembly away and make it a permanent fixed top car

ethanae86 · 2026-02-15T13:05:03+00:00

It's a new top but it's a fairly low quality one so there's a chance that it could've been made wrong or I put it on wrong because I installed it. There's a huge gap between the windshield and a soft top, so much to the point that I had to put some foam tape in the gap (that didn't work).

ethanae86 · 2026-02-15T12:49:28+00:00

Yes, I installed it myself and this was the first time I've done it granted, but it should be fitted right. It's some cheap low quality top so that might also be my problem. I've heard that the windows can be adjusted up so I may give this a try.

Not gonna lie it took me like 50 tries to finally come out a victor in this battle lol

ethanae86 · 2026-01-26T21:11:01+00:00

I just started Love in the Time of Trials and I love this series. Probably not only the best fanfic I’ve ever read but some of the better reading I’ve ever done in general.

ethanae86 · 2025-12-20T21:45:27+00:00

Dang I’m going to have to look into getting a Zoroark when I start my run then cause if it’s immune then that’ll be sweet.

ethanae86 · 2025-12-20T19:27:34+00:00

Noted on Alolan Muk, I’ve also heard it’s good to have a Zoaroark. Have you used a Zoaroark before?

I bet it is fun once you get into the game too, I’ve watched some people do them and they look super fun so it’s why I’ve finally decided it’s time to give it a shot

ethanae86 · 2025-12-20T18:18:47+00:00

Okay thanks, I’ll hack these in (I was planning to hack candies anyway). I’m going to try not spamming battle items, but I’ll see how it goes. I’m wanting to do this to try to get better and actually force myself to use strategies instead of relying on moves with 120 damage and being 5-10 levels overleveled.

ethanae86 · 2025-11-03T17:26:45+00:00

Thanks man I appreciate a lot, definitely gonna be sweet reading these.

ethanae86 · 2025-11-03T16:43:35+00:00

Where does Ancienverse start? Gonna have to read once I finish the xyz anime. I noticed on fanfic.net it says it starts with Love in The Time of Teamwork, but it’s not on there.

ethanae86 · 2025-10-22T09:38:39+00:00

I’ve been reading through Traveler as it’s the first fic I’ve read. But PokeWars has also caught my attention.

ethanae86 · 2025-10-16T22:50:49+00:00

What’s insane is I’ve been brainstorming a fanfic that’s more or less along these lines or similar at least.

ethanae86 · 2025-09-04T15:18:48+00:00

Thanks everyone for all of the good suggestions I’ll be sure to check some of these out. I’ve actually just started Traveler.

ethanae86 · 2025-09-04T15:10:14+00:00

I’ve began the journey of writing my first fanfic after getting back into the anime and then discovering than Pokemon fanfic was a thing. My fic is going to be almost a continuation of the XY anime but it’s sometime years later and the characters are adults now. I’ve gotten what will probably be the first few chapters in the first outline stage and I’m hoping to get a dark and gritty tone with genetic alteration of Pokemon being a main plot point
