Convertible "unglued"?
I am replacing the tension cables on the convertible and noticed the top seems to be unglued. Any ideas on fixing this? I don't want to just superglue it. lol

From the directions of my new top:
Contact cement spray adhesive (3M™ Yellow Super Trim Adhesive 08090) |

Mine is starting to do this as well, though it hasn't fully released. Not like I can drive it right now anyway...

I need to tackle this on my Boxster as well. Could have sworn there was a piece on this in a how-to for replacing the roof canvas around here somewhere... |

This stitching around my window started to fail last summer (before I knew about the boxter chop). None of the upholstery or auto shops near me will restitch the window to the top. They will only replace it :(
I was all set to order a new top, but decided to try a couple of dabs of the household goop that they sell at home depot. I put it on last August and have raised and lowered the top a number of times since then and it's still holding strong. It was intended to be a quick fix, but seems to be holding. I might even try reapplying if it fails again. I'll be thrilled if I get an extra year or two out of the top from this glue. |
