1981 Scamp Front Rear Windows Leaking

Hi, would like to weatherproof the front and rear (non-sliders) windows. Although they could probably use new seals, that's more than I want to do right now. Anyone have pics or video of what weatherproofing those windows looks like? Thanks!

window leaks

Scamps usually leak where the gasket shrinks and pulls apart at the bottom of the solid plexiglass windows. For a temp. fix tape around the hole and fill with black RTV. It is easiest to order new window seals and beading from Scamp. I tried other seals but I had the best luck with Scamp seals. BTW the plexiglass is 3/16" or sold as .177. A cotter pin puller and cotton clothesline really help to get the new seal installed.
