I have a problem with my hardtop leaking on the drivers side. When I wash the car or it rains. Leaks where the top and window come together, all over my left leg. I have took top off and can't find a problem with the gaskets. Does't leak with the hard top removed and the convertable top up. George

That is a common problem in a lot of Birds. One thing you may want to try is reprogram your windows. Just in case the drivers side isn't going all the way up. It may help.

The information for recalibrating the windows is on page 41 in the "Driver Controls" section. If you have the same book

Don't know how hard it would be to find, but Im very sure Ford issued a TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) telling their dealers how to fix this problem.
 
Quickdraw is correct, once again. Here is the TBS number, 04-9-5. See attached, I believe this is the one.
