Worst Onomatopoeia - Crack. Rear windows and cold weather!

Post by tags »

Watch out with the weather. It caught me out today. I dropped the top and "CRACK".....

I now have a lovely crack in my back window. I have driven this ///M in all weathers and always made sure that the roof only went down when the window had warmed up and for 8 years I have lived by that rule. However, today I forgot.

I have decided to consider replacing my roof completely. Has anybody recently replaced thiers in the northwest. I am looking for recommendations and rough cost if anyone can help.

THe problem in the meantime, should I put a bit of clear gorilla tape on or should i stick the hard top on :roll:

Not in the Northwest, but going to Soft Tops in Croydon on Saturday to have a replacement roof fitted. Cost, £350 fully fitted and come in black or blue.

Will post pictures up when its done, although with this rubbish weather forecast for the next few weeks still then the hardtop should really go back on :cry:
