Default Cut in soft top, where to get repaired?

As a few of you already know I have a small (maybe an inch) slash in my soft top. Anyone know where I can go to have it repaired? Thanks.

Hey Mike

any decent upholstery shop should be able to patch your roof

when Honda tried to patch mine, i took the car to a place called Adolph's Auto Top Inc in Natick, MA 01760. The guy was great. However that may be a bit of a drive for you.

again all he did was cut a small piece of vinyl from some scrap stick and used black bathroom caulk and placed the patch on the inside of the roof and used a heat gun (not too hot) to seal the adhesive

if it was me, i'd look for a used top - buy a 30 pack and we'll figure it out

Best

I hear you... I bet if you call your local dealership they should be able to reccomend someone in your area that will be able to patch the top

I have used them years ago to replace the top on my 69 camaro convertable and they did a good job. Also they did a patch in the interior which came out good on my wife's SUV.

Good Luck

Got the top fixed today. I went to the place recommended by DrEBraces. Great service. Only cost my $30 and he patched the inside and and sealed the outside. It turned out a lot better then I thought. Thanks a lot guys.
