Soft top window has cracked on 2002 Boxter

[Clydetheglide]

Cold weather has just bit me.

Do I need to replace the whole top or can I ...I don't know, purchase a new window and have an upholstery shop sew it in or something?

Any suggestions? Any links? Any local and reasonable shops that might do this in the Los Angeles area? Am I fooling myself about a low cost fix for this?

Help please!

You can either replace the top or have the plastic window replaced. I have seen quotes from $300-650 for replacing the plastic window.

A new top could run you $1000-2000 installed. More if you opt to go with a glass window top. If you decide to replace the top, I would recommend going with a glass window top, then you won't have any problems with the plastic cracking or hazing or any of the other common plastic window woes.

I'm in the same situation you are in, my plastic rear window has cracked in both bottom corners. I put some clear tape on the inside to keep water out, but I'll need to do something about it. I'm going to try to have the top replaced with a glass window top, but might have to wait a few months to get the funds in line.

Thanks for the advice.

I'll be getting this fixed when I get the funds too.
