Windshield Leak tip

[Massimo]

Please send me instruction for seal replace for my tiara 3500

We just bought a 1998 3500 Open and I'm having a similar problem, but at the top of the windshield frame.  There are noticeable gaps in the frame.  The window seals are fine, but the frame is leaking.  I was thinking about taping one side, and trying to fill with silicon.  From what I've heard this creates a mess.  The problem is my helm electronics get wet when a wave comes over the windshield.  Other than a full replacement, are there any suggestions?

I need you email address, I will then send you all the information that Tiara sent me about how the windshield was put together, how to take apart and replace seals and the P/N for all the seals which Tiara told me are still available from them. PM me or post here and if anyone else wants it I will also send to you, just let me know.

Hello All,

I've received some very helpful information and guidance on this issue from people reaching out from this thread. I am curious if anyone can point me in the direction of where to source the physical gasket materials or could put me in contact with someone who can source it?

Thank you!
