Hi Guys

I have bought a plastic rear screen for my softop, and dont have a clue how im going to stitch that on, has anyone done this before,

Also is there a way I can adjust the softop iv seem to have a little gap just next to the rear quarter glass on both sides, need go down a bit

its very difficult installting the rear if you havent done it before takes 2 people you will need to take the hood of the frame, you might as well let a hood repair specialist sort it out.

out of interest where did u manage to purchase the rear screen and how much was it ?

These guys will put a new window in and will cost £200.They will need your car from 9.00am until 2.30pm.That is the quote I had from them which included one of their screens.

Thanks guys that is a nice price i had a qoute for £ 200 jus to fit my screen on. I bought mine off ebay theres a guy on ebay who makes it il see if i can find his details and il let you know

I've sewn a rear screen into a cabby.

There's a guide on the wiki pages - Convertible rear window sew in instructions. This is the BMW guide with notes from someone who has tried it.

It's not a difficult job, just a tedious one.

The one thing on the wiki that's not listed is that you need to make sure you cut the window to size when it's cold. If you cut it when it's warm, it'll shrink in the colder air and it'll be a nightmare to fit.

You don't need to remove the roof at all.

I buy windows from emiata.com and you need to work out if yours is a zip in or sew in window. In my experience the zip in windows came with the facelift E30s.
