My door inserts fell out, I am wondering if anybody has replaced these before, I am having trouble figureing them out.
Also, has anybody stitched or replaced the rear window, on the top. My fabric has ripped on the top as well. thank for any help.

the door inserts can be restapled by any decently high powered pneumatic stapler (the old fashioned staple guns don't provide enough power to puncture the plastic). As for the rear window, if you have to get the top replaced, the rear window should be included in that package. Unless you can tackle replacing the top yourself, I would consider taking it to an upholstery shop with a reputation for working on convertible tops.

Thanks Boss, I figured out the door insert replacement earlier. I tried maybe 4 or 5 different staplers before I ran out and made a crazy purchase of a air one, I also replaced the rear window earlier as well, it was surprisinly easy, I just had to find the right kind of plastic, and wouldnt you know, they sell it at textile stores, kinda wierd huh. Thanks for the help though. Oh by the way on a lighter note I discovered all of my seats and inserts are custom, I guesse the first and only owner of the car had it all reapolstered in cream leather. Go figure.
