First question, and the dumb one but i have to ask...
Are you sure the front latches are fully secured?

Does it sit fully and evenly against the rubber seal?

have you inspected the header seal for cracks/tears depressions where maybe something got pinched in it?

Ok It Is An Oem Top Yes Both Latches Are Sealed It Seems To Be Right Above Where The Radio No Cracks Or Tears In Weather Stripping I've Checked It It Seems Like There Is A Little Lift Where The Soft Top Meets That Rubber Channel When It Is Clamped Down It Did Not Do This Before I Took It To The Dealership To Have Them Swap Out My Hood ( Long Story) And I Refuse To Take It To Any More Idiots
