Drip rail deflectors
How do they work? I’ve not had any on the Fawkes for 22 years now, but the passenger side is starting to leak. I can’t, for the life of me, trace the source!

Re: Drip rail deflectors
The drip deflector bridges the gap between the windshield frame and the top. It works pretty well. Make sure you put a bead of silicone on it before you install it.
Mine are pretty old and cracked, but my new Softopper should be here soon...

Re: Drip rail deflectors
I've filled that gap with silicone in the past, without luck... Are those things magic?
