I have seen a couple older threads on this, but thought there might be new suggestions or info. I really like the function of my SE, but it does have a couple minor leak spots I would like to improve. I did torque everything to spec and weighted the corners when I adjusted the rods. I do not seem to get leaks anywhere but near the center section. The photos below were after a home wash--not a pressure wash.

I get leaks on both sides about straight down from where the center section ends. A few photos below to describe. I was thinking of adding a little foam weatherstrip at the ends of the clamping plate for the center, but interested to see if you have any ideas.

On the outside, it looks like they did a nice job of trimming the weatherstripping.
