FINALLY an on-sunroof seal is on the market! Perfect timing as I'm in a bit of a rainy season right now. Can't wait to stop my sunroof leaks for good!

Figment is tight, be careful closing the roof after install. Other than that it's a pretty easy install. We'll see how it does in rain.

I don't see how these sunroof leaks work.... Isn't there a gutter that traps the water, and it drains through the tunes that lead to the rear cubbys.

The primary sealing surface is with the other seal on the body and not with the body itself . Despite what everyone says I had more leaks from the inner seal than from this one , water would pass under the inner seal , you have to make sure it sits absolutely perfect around the edge .Mine would come loose whenever I took the top off.
Before discovering this I did also get an OE outer seal but it doesn't fit right , the sunroof doesn't sit flush because the seal is slightly too thick.
If this seal solves that problem i'm definitely getting one.

Mine's in, and tested. It does sit up a bit higher, but not horrible. It does make the sunroof tight, and it keeps the water out. Here's some pics:
