Hey guys after the part number for the t-top seals. Or if anyone has some I'd love to buy them. Have a small leak at the fronts of the t-top pannels just buy the window dripping onto the seat

All the part numbers for the targa seals are listed here:

Before you jump into buying them though, do a search on the forum for threads on targa leaks. Replacing the rubber won't necessarily solve your problem.  A better (and MUCH cheaper) option to start with first is to fit some 'eccentric targa guides', which pull the targa panels down with greater pressure. You can buy them on eBay:

Another thing is to add to that is cleaning your seals really thoroughly, then applying some rubber conditioner, which helps them swell back up a bit and makes them more pliable. I use this stuff on all my rubber seals, and it's brilliant:

Finally, if you don't actually take the glass out, you can also smear some waterproof silicone grease around all the seals before you put the glass on and then leave it there. That often helps stop leaks too (but I'd still use the rubber conditioner first anyway).

You could use silicone to seal the gap, you can peel it off if it's not for you.
 
If you do it right, it should eliminate the leaks. I had all four corners of my targa leaking, now only one corner on the passenger side is leaking, probably because I didn't apply enough silicone. I will have to reapply more.
 
Here's a link to with pics and instructions.

If all the other steps are done properly, you shouldn't really need to resort to silicone. And the other (longer-term) issue with doing that is that, if water and moisture get trapped under the silicone, the result will be rust… and that's a much bigger headache!

Agree with mister2 - eccentric guides + a small L-shaped dab of rubber-safe, water-resistant grease applied to the corners really helps seal the two rubber surfaces together.
You need to wipe it off if you actually take the panels out, but for the winter months when the roof stays on, it really helps keep the rain out...
