Default 2001 xj8 Wind Noise

We were going on a test run yesterday and around 80 MPH there was a terrible wind noise coming from the mirror. we opened the sun roof and the noise was still there. I think it is coming from the gasket or windshield frame. Has anyone else experienced this and what did you do to remedy?

guess I should have said which mirror. the rear view mirror is where the noise was coming from. there is a gap where the trim pieces meet right there. I may try to put a piece of tape there to see if it goes away then deal with it

Been there, done that!!!
People complained about it so we got the tape kit along with other fixes for other noises in other model Jaguars.
