Is there any way to just replace the window? A friend of mine did his own replacement of the top on his VW Golf Cabrio. On that car, the glass window from the old top actually gets re-used. It just got me thinking that maybe there is a way to just install a new glass in this top, which might be cheaper and easier than re-doing the whole top.

It would very likely be cheaper I would think

but I do not know where you would get one sourced or where you would find someone to install it. The window is I think kind of glued into a pocket...I know they had some problems initially with the windows coming loose from the convertible top when the design was first introduced so I do not think it is something that could easily be duplicated. I spoke with a rep from GAHH today and he concluded that it must have been a freak accident as he was not aware of any other similar instances in the past.
