Rear window issues

[Jan_280Z]

Hey guys

Last night it rained out here in Tucson. I took the Z over to a friends house and while driving I noticed that there was a nice steady drip coming from the rear of the car. After some examination I'm pretty positive that the water is coming from the rear glass gasket on the rear right corner. Secondly this morning when I turned on the rear defogger only about two of the lines work. (its been like this since I bought the car).

 

So what exactly should I do here? What are my options window wise and what should be done about the rear defogger?

I live in Washington so its raining here all the time and almost every Z car I've had has leaked really bad. I usually just go get the clear window sealant and lift up the edges of window gaskets, glass side and body side and squirt it in and wipe of the excess. Be sure to get the window sealant not just clear RTV, the window stuff is much thinner and will flow in the cracks better. About the defrost, you can get repair kits that come with conductive paint and just repair the broken lines in the defrost, I've never done it so I dont know how good it works. Good luck.
