    Soft Top repair or replace?

    So I have tested HH66 Vinyl glue with a scrap piece of tarp and vinyl siding trim. At first the bond was week but the piece I let dry over night was strong, took probably 15lbs to pull them apart. I believe I am going to use less rivets and glue the tarp and siding trim together and hope it...

    Soft Top repair or replace?

    Not sure what this part is called, the plastic "C" channel on the front of the soft top that slides into the groove on the windshield and holds down the front of the soft top. This part is broken and brittle, the rest of the soft top is in good shape. Is this plastic part readily available...
