Default Re: Roadster rear window problem solved?

I had to take the car to the Dealer ship to diagnose the reason ( maybe they think I did it on purpose??) Well, the tech figured it's the same reason as the 2005 models, but until today no 2006 owner complained, so there is no open case! Of course! I guess I am the first. Well however they said it can't get repaired, I need a new Top, he threw me $1365 for the top and $1525 labor. Damnnnn, where am I going to get this money? So now I am reading your M3 glue job you did. Would you please keep me updated? I see you live in Arizona and it is quite hotter there than here. So I hope your glue is holding.
I guess I was lucky, they replaced it with a beautiful new top & window.
As far as my fix, it was Locktite Gel super glue sold at Home Depot, it did a real good job and held until they replaced the top, that was about 5 months. GOOD LUCK WITH YOURS.
