Wilshire Motor Trimmers on South Rd did the labour on replacing mine. They can do a rear plastic window replacement too.

When it happened to me I went to clark rubber for the material as its cheap,

Then take out your softtop and take it to the motor trimmers with the material and say fix!

cost me bugger all, cant remember exact figure...

Oh and dont go to wiltshire they charge through thr ROOF!

Oils aint oils and the same applies to plastics. If you go to the trimmer you will get the right material. Sub standard plastics deteriorate very quickly because either the material of manufacture is poor quality without UV stabilisers or it is made from regrind. Outdoor furniture can last a very long time made from quality virgin material or not even a season from rubbish regrind pp. If you look at a number of older Holden rear lamps that are leached of colour it relates to poor material choice.
