Can you replace a glass soft top window

Postby mx5002 » Fri Apr 26, 2013 3:54 pm

Broke mine :-(
Can you get a replacement or am I up for a new top?

Hate doing a two man job on my own :twisted:

You should be able to replace the soft-top window.

You have a few options, remove the broken glass and glue a new one in (I'd recommend getting this done by a professional to avoid any leaks.

You could also cut out the vinyl around that area and sew a soft-top glass window with the vinyl attached around it (cut from another soft-top).

I have a spare glass window with a demister if you're after a cheap replacement window with a section of vinyl around it.
