hello,
I have a 97 del sol. and since few years, I have gettign this wind sound on the driver side if I drive over 50mph. It has been bugging me for a while.
I took it to an auto body shop, and they told me that it would cost me 200 dollars (parts only) to fix it.

this isn`t my del sol.
but as you see on the picture, the circled window strips are very loose. If i put force on it, I could move the inside weatherstrips around. I am thinking about fixing ti without replacing parts... If I could somehow fill up the little gap between the weather strip and the supporting triangle thingy (about .5mm) with some kind of glue, then I think it might work. the body shop person told me not to do it because it will cost more to replace it later if I screw up. I am thinking about getting an needle shot thingy and suck up some glue and inject glue into the gap. But the problem is that I Do not know what glue to use. I have the epoxy glue (the one that mix two solution) and some silicon from home depot.
Help me please!
