Glass top or just a new plastic?

Had me worried for a second. Thought you were leaving us

That really is quite a lot of character!

I'll have to do a similar surgery on mine in the next year.
In the mean time though I found wetsuit repair glue sealed out the elements perfectly and remains very flexible. I'd be interested in hearing how you are going to fix your window. I have not decided on a strategy for mine yet. I figure these are the options: > Replace top with plastic window. > Replace top with glass window. > Get new plastic window sewn in > Replace top with 2003 used top, with glass window, from salvage yard as a complete unit, frame and all, plug-n-play. > ??? |

Thanks JayG, the addiction is strong so it would be hard to leave for real. :) I'm going with a new top with glass window. The top, while still good, is starting to get pretty faded and dry, developing wear spots. I first was going to just put in a new plastic window, but most estimates were running either side of $600 and it doesn't take at all long for the plastic to start scratching and clouding up, especially on a daily driver used in all weather. It's a Haartz top with retro-fitted glass window so it will fit my '99 without any modifications. It seemed like the most logical choice overall. ;) I'll let you guys know the final result and final bill when I get it back, hopefully by tomorrow from what I was told. |
