Boxster Top peeling?
The weather has been very bipolar from 90 degress to 60 degress and i thin thats played a role in the peeling of my top. The bottom of the rear windshield is starting to peel and water is getting in. Anyone have this kind of problem and a fix? Seems like oem might of just used windshield glue to attach the top to the rear windshield?

Post some pix. I'm having a difficult time imagining what's happening to your car's top.

The window is distached from the top. The glass is okay, I wonder if insurance would cover it as glass coverage. |
Is this an aftermarket retrofit top? That happened on early renditions of the tops.
You could try to claim it, but it's probably going to be considered a maintenance item. Contact the top manufacturer and see if they will warrant it. |
no clue, id say oem.

What year is your car?

I thought it only snowed in Minnesota.:cheers:

03 was the first OEM glass top.
Yours is aftermarket. |

If you do a search here for posts about 3 or 4 years ago, you will find that this is the problem that was described for the early versions of the GAHH and Robbins glass-windowed canvas tops for the three-bow (1997 to 2002) tops. Regards, Maurice. |
Both companies redesigned their tops to fix this problem. You should find out which brand it is and contact them to see if they will replace it. Both co's had 5 year warranties if I'm not mistaken.

My 1994 Mustang GT that I bought new started doing this when it was 2 years old. Ford dealer sent it to a upholstery shop for reglueing 2 different times. That "fix" lasted about a week. Top never got any worse or better the 9 years I had it. I think driving thru a automatic "touchless" car wash was the cause.

Where is the logos located on these tops? Sadly insurance won't cover
