Good afternoon all,
I am looking for replacement drip edges for my 88 GT that I just picked up. I have an 88 GT with a sunroof already, so the t-top option is new to me. I tried reaching out to Fieroparts in Maine, but haven't received a response. Any help would be appreciated...

Welcome to the T-top world first of all.

If you are talking about the seal that is on the edge of the top and goes over the window, there are 2 different types.
CJB coded (the ones that were ordered from the factory as an option) and non CJB.
This is true for all of the seals from my research.

Here is a link to some that I am going to order before spring.

http://www.fieroparts.com/

Scroll down on the left to T-top parts and click it.

There are some rather detailed procedures on how to install them, and how to adjust the tops to fit properly.
If you need that, I have found a copy of the Cars and Concepts installation manual I can share.

I am far from an expert on T-tops,,,,, yet, but getting there slowly.

These aren't the seals.....they are the hard-ish rubber strips that are glued to the T-Top frame to direct water away from the seals. As far as I know, they are the same for all T-Top Fieros.

Thanks for correcting me mrfiero, lol, I guess I read what I wanted to see.
I guess I better order a set of those also now that I look closer.

No problem....just wanted to clarify things.

I worded my response a little poorly though....I said "glued to the T-Top frame", what I meant to say was glued to the T-Top glass frame (the metal part by the small rubber seal).

I installed my t-tops from a set taken from another car. The other car did not have the drip edges. My car has been without them for going on 15 years. They help direct the water away from the weather seals, but they are not a mandatory thing. Neither are the P seals, which I don't have either.
