Thanks for the tip. I did the same thing, but I used dielectric silicone grease, it worked very well as well.

Yep, I used dielectric silicone grease on mine a long time ago, and it's still not leaking at the top of the A-pillar. It used to leak there constantly!

This castor oil idea is interesting. I had already used Sil-Glyde (purchased it at NAPA).

After reading 95DropTop's observation about castor oil being a major ingredient in dielectric grease, I checked the product data sheet for Sil-Glyde and read that 30 to 45% of Sil-Glyde is castor oil, too.

 

And if castor oil leaves the surface dry, I'll have to give that a shot, because the Sil-Glyde leaves a slightly greasy residue.
