Fixed

So, in case anybody needs to fix their car. Only one tool needed: a 20 torx.
There are 2 seals on the left of the car (between the hardtop and the windows) and 2 on the right.

Both seals have (inside them I might say) 5 screws that hold them in place. You can unscrew them a little bit and move them around 3-5mm left / right and then screw them back in place. This should do the trick.

P.S: Keep in mind that the hydraulic pump will eventually shut down and a yellow roof sign will appear - (overheated hydraulic pump). Also, you could be unlucky as I am wiggle the cables by mistake causing them to break and having to resolder them back together.
