- sturgedm - 02-05-2007 hock: Rear plastic window cracked in the cold weather this week. Anyone have any good ideas beyond duct-tape on how to repair a 6 inch crack? I see new convertable tops are running $600 - $800 has anyone had experience installing one? - ccm911 - 02-05-2007 There is a place in Willow Grove that does good work, and it shouls cost way lower than a new top and labor. I think it is called Willow Grove Auto Tops? Hopefully, someone here on the forum will know the correct name. After driving an e30 BMW cab with a plastic rear window, I can feel your pain. - sturgedm - 02-05-2007 Cool, Thanks, I found them on the web. Here is their contact information if anyone else needs it: www.wgautotop.com 43 North. York Road

I need to join the 914 club ... or the 924 club ... or the 912 club .... geez! - smankow - 02-05-2007 check with brian minkin. his company does repairs to interiors, but I'm not certain that he does anything on the rear windows. Steve - Brian Minkin - 02-05-2007 In response to Steve's suggestion, we do not do window replacement on convertible tops. However I have seen tops on 911 cabs that have had the window cut out exept for a small lip and new plastic glued to that lip. I personally would rather have it sewn in the way Willow Grove Auto Top would do it but this is a cheaper alternative. You need to check with some other trim shops to get additional price quotes and installation options. - APXD 30 - 02-06-2007 Just an idea but, it may be worth exploring the retrofit option of an '03 glass top through PAR. |
