So just to add more to the list and just my luck i noticed that the rear window on my convertible top has begun to detach itself






I've made several calls to many upholstery shops and most of them are saying i have to replace the whole part which isnt cheap and the labor itself i was charged 800 bucks which i think is ridiculous let alone spending that or more. anyways to the point the question here is.. am i screwed here?? or is there a much cheaper solution??

My rear window completely came apart from the cloth and fell down. I used 3M Glass Primer and 3M Windo-Weld adhesive to repair it. I was a bit skeptical at first, and didn't think the glue would be able to hold the tension of the convertible top. It's been 3 years now, and the glass is still holding up with no leaks at all. The bond is incredibly strong and looks just as good as new smile.gif.

I purchased these products online, which were more than enough to get the job done.

3M Glass Primer- product #08682 (30ml)
3M Windo-Weld adhesive 10.5 oz. tube #08609
