Default Mine has seen better days

I have a few threads starting to show, the backwindow is starting to come loose; however, I may have a couple more years to go out of this top as it has spent it's life in my home garage or my parking garage at work. Except for the time in CA it has had a pretty sheltered life. There's a lot of my car that wishes it had the life expectancy of my top!

Default been there, done that with TT #2....TTschwing had recommend marine glue from...

some marine website but I couldn' find the link he had given me.

I found some at home depot and it held up really well.

I think your top could have lasted longer if a certain tuning company that shall remain nameless hadn't abused your car by letting it sit in the sun like that every day.

someone did a repair with pop rivets and glue to the window seam that seemed to work well, might be in the FAQ
