SOME but not all rear windows zip in!

Have a real close look at the edge to see if yours does or not... the only convertibles I've seen are all stitched in, but you may be lucky!

You can get a decent hood fitted for around the £500 mark :D

you could have it picked and a new window stitched in, did it on my car over here, wasn't too waterproof but thats not a concern where i am

it was hand stitched in so that might cost you a fortune in uk, luky for us labour is cheap here!
