I wonder if you could take off the convertible frame/seals and just use some standard automotive seals from your local NAPA store as the interface between the hard shell top and windscreen frame/body/side glass.

Weather proof 3M double stick tape perhaps could be used.

I mention NAPA because our local store seems to carry the stuff (basic stuff) other stores do not. I'm sure if you need some exotic profile you could find something on-line or special order it.
