I want to buy OEM moldings and trim for my Forbidden OEM style hardtop. I can not tell exactly what the pieces are in the factory pictures. My top leaks where ever it makes contact to the original surfaces. I wonder if someone who has put one on has either the part numbers or at least the description to help me order the parts. The guy that I talked to was as helpful as possible but he was not familiar enough with the parts to tell me what all I need.
I would appreciate any advise that you guys might have.
I think that I only have the moldings that go behind the door glass. I had a high end paint job done and I want to complete the project .
Thanks in advance!

 

I have a Forbidden it's ehhh, the fitment is ok the wind noise isn't the best. I don't have any leaks but the Windows fitment isn't perfect imo it's really a you get what you pay for top.

Going to be pricey if you buy all OEM seals but they are the best.

You can use the same method here as well if you wanted to.

 

Thanks for the reply. I had seen those posts but I had wondered about those metal retainers. The body shop guy did a great job of glueing my window moldings in so I am not sure that they will want to let go in order to install the retainers. What advantage should I get by removing the Forbidden seals to replace them with OEM?

In that picture that you sent me it shows two strips that go in the front above the windshield frame. Do you know why it has two seals there?

 

No more wind noise / air leaks in that area (if you are having that issue)

 

On this video he talks about improving fitment on the replica with felt tape at specific locations.

 

honestly you should just sell your replica and get an authentic mugen hardtop, the oem hardware/seals/mouldings are so expensive it doesn't make sense to put on a replica

 

It is too late to sell my top and go with a OEM one. My top has been fitted with a glass rear window and is painted to match the car. The side and rear moldings will arrive tomorrow.
