Re: top talk
OK so I decided to repair the rear window myself since the fabric is really in good condition, and the way I see it I have nothing to lose if it should fail as many have warned me it will, I can then replace the top with a new one if I can find the right top shop to do it. This repair should buy me some time to look around and find the right shop and fabric. I used a 3M adhesive called 5200 in black. The separation was only in one corner at the top so it was an easier fix since the glass had not come all the way out and still partially attached.
All marine stores carry 3M 5200 and my experience with it on boats and marine use has been very good. It takes a full 7 days to cure so we'll see how it does. Thanks again for all the suggestions and advice. This top defect affects all Crossfire owners eventually.
