So on one fine day about a month ago, I put the top down. When I put it back up, I noticed a small crack in the plastic window. You'd have to look hard to notice anything at all. Well I put krazy glue to seal it back up along with some scotch tape on the inside and out of the window to prevent any leaks.
Well, a month later it seems to have done the trick but since then I didn't have the top down because I didn't want anymore cracks. So a few days ago I put the top down, just to make sure everything was working. Everything seemed fine. Well this morning I put the top up (I have to park near a tree at school and birds love red cars) and I saw 2 larger cracks on the window that you can defintely notice. I knew I should have bought some sort of plastic polish for the top. I guess the window got hard and brittle from being out in direct sunlight. I told my dad about getting some Plexus but he said no it's nothing (the answer I most often get from him when I have a problem with the car...including my timing chain rattle issue) Next time, i'll have to listen to myself instead of him.
Getting a new top or window will have to wait for some time...unless someone's willing to donate me money, j/k. My question is, is there a possible way to remove that window and leave the top like that? I realize that it's attached by velcro and stitched to the top itself. I saw a Miata a while back with the top up without a rear window so i just wondering if this could be a temporary alternative.
Also, have any of you guys heard of a window that can be zipped off/on from the top?
