T-Top Glass separating from frame
I've got a 1981 and on the passenger side T-Top, the glass, in the front is starting to separate from the frame. There's maybe a 1/4'' gap at highway speeds and you can hear the wind whistling through.
Any suggestions how to refasten it? Epoxy? Other ideas?
Thanks for any assistance!

There will be plenty of help in replies in a few hours. but just in case no one else tells you, and you probly already know- DO NOT drive with it like this any more. It WILL fly off , replacing aint easy, and it aint cheap.

You guys are going to make me check mine out tomorrow, if the Sun is shining. I haven't heard any wind noises, but usually I'm not paying any attention to anything but the beautiful sound of my duals, I just love that sound, Thanks & have a great day. Gene

Urethane that is used to seal the windshield to the whindshield frame works well.
You will need to find out why it seperated and "tighten" up the frame to the glass. Once cleaned apply a modest amount of urethane and it will hold the frame in position. Use masking tape to secure until dry. Razor blades to clean up.
I would not use silicone or epoxy.
Dano,
