Noting they were primarily for track use, lightyear's run of carbon fibre fastbacks & HTs used: 'The windows are installed with a high quality automotive adhesive tape, so there is no messy glue.': viewtopic.php?f=44&t=74963&p=928486&hilit=adhesive#p928486

Are u trying to glue it to a stock top or carbon fibre one?
I'd use tons of sikaflex, nice fasteners and pray (as they tend to loosen).

Fender washers FTW. SS Allen or phillips head bolts for a bigger win.
