I took my top motor apart and I noticed theres fluid leaking into the electrical side of the motor. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this and can offer some advice in what bearing or seals I can replace to prevent this from happening.

third picture is that a seal inside that locking o ring?

Pictures don't work, try imgur.

Also, any convertible repair shop should be able to source them* or rebuild it. I have the same issue as well, a local shop said they can fix it. Now, I just gotta pull it.

*Seals and gaskets
