Is convertible top repairable??
04 vert back window came unglued. Top is like new since it spends most of the time garaged. Anyone have luck with reglue?

Look in the sticky in the tech section. I think that's where I saw the rear glass fix.

There are a couple of good posts on doing this, you'll need to do a search as I don't have them on me, but I"ve had to do this on mine as well.

It's super easy. I had to glue mine back in a few months back. This was the steps that I followed and had it fixed in no time. If you don't have the suction cups shove some pillows in there to hold it till your glue sets. Good luck.

Amazing how well that gorilla glue and a little pressure works to repair that back glass. Solid repair.
