Default Convertible Issue

I just got a 1995 ragtop a few months ago and am having problems with the glass window in the back coming unattached from the fabric, just wondering if anyone else has had similar problems and what they did to fix it I have tried about everything other than replacing the top itself.
Thanks I think this forum is fantastic!

Same thing happened to my 94 took it to 2 vert shops both said the only true fix is a new top I went to lowes and got some 2 part epoxy and glued that sucker back in.It doesn't look to bad.Not sure how long it will last if I keep putting down the top.It doesn't leak anymore though.Clean both sides where you are going to glue with achohol.I used devcon flow mix 5 minute epoxy part#20445
Good luck!

The same thing happened to my 95 Convertible. I was told the only way to permanently fix it was to replace the top. I had a new top installed.
