This original-style rubber seal helps prevent water ingress, wind noise and draughts, making it ideal for replacing worn or deteriorated seals during roof maintenance or classic Porsche restoration.

What Does the Front Windscreen Frame Seal Do?

The seal creates a flexible barrier between the windscreen frame and the roof assembly. It helps prevent rainwater and wind entering the passenger compartment while maintaining correct contact between the roof and bodywork.

Why Does It Fail?

Over time, the rubber can harden, shrink, crack or become permanently compressed. Exposure to sunlight, changing temperatures and repeated roof operation can accelerate deterioration.

A worn seal may cause water leaks, excessive wind noise or visible gaps around the front roof edge.

When Should It Be Replaced?

Replacement is recommended when the seal becomes cracked, flattened, brittle or distorted, or when water and draughts enter around the top of the windscreen.

Inspect the seal whenever carrying out Targa roof refurbishment, hood repairs or windscreen frame maintenance.

Confirm the correct seal against the vehicle's roof design and original part number before ordering.

Checks During Replacement

Inspect the windscreen frame, roof alignment, retaining channels and adjacent weatherstrips. Incorrect roof adjustment or damaged surrounding seals may cause leaks even after fitting a new front seal.
