Can't wait to try this. Thank you!!

[@Leeroy128]

Thank you. I've seen a photo guide but it was hard to see exactly what to do, this is much clearer.

[@theMGTF]

You're welcome!

[@objectiveobjective1948]

Really great tip 👍and you'd never guess about the guaranteed boot leek being the rear light unit gaskets till someone tells you which will save you money as its a simple diy job.

[@davidrooke-bates5530]

This also works with the hardtop!

[@objectiveobjective1948]

I'll remember that tip cheers David 👍

Nice video dude, thanks. Almost finished getting mine ready for MOT after being sat for a couple of years :-)

[@theMGTF]

Thanks. Good luck with the MOT! 🤞

[@rodneydixon3938]

Nice simple fix, interesting to see how to align windows.

[@theMGTF]

Thanks. The passenger side window definitely needs realigning, so I’ll probably cover that in another video

[@MrEdman1965]

Looks easy and useful! Thanks!

[@andrechin7282]

Thanks for the tip and have a great week

[@juanbla]

thanks for your advice

[@theMGTF]

No problem. Glad you found it helpful!

[@Florishh]

i watched it and im defniitly gonna try this with my mgf, just something i was wondering is: does it actually work?

[@theMGTF]

It depends what the cause is to be honest. I think they always leak a bit, but it certainly helped mine leak less

[@markhawthorne7014]

a perfect thank you very much

[@chrisnaylor1882]

Very helpful video. Thanks. Did the fix work?

[@theMGTF]

For me it worked, but I know it doesn’t work for everyone. If it doesn’t work, check the window alignment and the window cheaters next 👍

[@chrisnaylor1882]

@@theMGTF Thanks for your advice. I'll definitely be trying the PVC tube fix you suggest first!

[@theMGTF]

Good luck, I hope it works for you 🤞

[@chrisnaylor1882]

@@theMGTF Great tip! Worked for me, too!

[@MrOlly18]

what size tubing did you fit please? Also is the part on the door fixable just by aligning windows? Thanks!

[@theMGTF]

I fitted tubing with an internal diameter of 3mm, although I’ve heard people using larger tubing with an internal diameter of 5mm

[@alextheromanian]

Never use PVC. Surgical tubing only PVC turns into hard plastic in the winter and it cuts up the factory seal.

what size did you use?

[@theMGTF]

I used 3mm (internal diameter) tubing, but I know others who have used 5mm
