Hi craig welcome.
Where your leaks coming from? Bit of adjustment should get rid. Mine used to leak but is ok now.

I have hardtop on mine (only had fabric roof on once!).
I removed the black plastic doorcards then put the window winder back on, so you can see the mechanism.
Then I got in, shut the door, and got someone to pour a bit of water over the bits where it leaks. Then there is two nuts on the bottom edge of the door that control the front and rear height of the window.
You can adjust these when the door is shut and the window is up from inside. Managed to get rid of the leaks that way.

Hullo
I also find opening the doors, then winding the windows up helps a lot with the leaks at the A pillar.
Cheers,
