Window Tear

2002 Box. A few days ago I noticed a tear in my plastic rear window. It's about 1/3 inch wide, and in the middle. It's barely noticeable (to others besides myself). I can't think of how it could have "accidently" occured. The upholstery shop rep recommended I replace the entire top. I can always just claim it with my insurance, but I'd like to know if there are any options besides spending $1200 for a new top, or $500 to get a new plastic window sewn in. Can a plastic window tear be repaired?

If you would like to try a temporary fix until you decide how to proceed, cover the tear with a piece of the clear, flexible box packaging tape. It will at least keep the tear from getting larger. I have had a piece on my back window for a year and it is still holding well. You can hardly see it.

Good luck !
