For 2 years, my Best Top OEM replacement soft top has served me well. No leaks, great fitment etc. Recently however, the driver side upper (I have half doors) has all of a sudden started to leak. Not horribly, but the inner fold of the lower flap accumulates water and eventually it fills up. The bottom of the zipper seems to be where the water is coming in at...maybe?

It has never done this before, even through horrible rain and snow storms here in the PNW. Any idea as to why this happens or what I can do to fix it?

Thank you.

May be time to use some tent seam sealer on a dry day- those uppers take a lot of wind stress at hiway speed. Knowing Bestop they will send you new ones.
