And nor should it. It's a completely different vehicle that isn't essentially hand built to a 30 (or even 50) year old design. Darren

I just got back from a week away, and my 52 plate TD5 which has been parked up outside is soaked in the back,
Also got a wet foot when I moved it from its parking space
Looks like another go with the silicone. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV 1966 S2a 109 aka Betsy |

I have been contemplating if there would be any sense in removing the roof, sides and screen and rebuilding with new seals. However I have come to the conclusion that I would be wasting my time, as with the design of the vehicle there is bound to be movement between panels, and more leaks would eventually develop. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

David, a easy quick way which i have done before is take out the old gasket, loosen off the windscreen hinges as this makes life easier, then silicone the hole inside, by a new genuine gasket for below the screen and cut it in half place it back in just for a original show look and it will never leak again but still look dead original
