Convertible Top Glass window Shattered - do I need a whole new top?
Hey All,
Just like the topic says my convertible top's glass just shattered while I was putting it up a few months ago and I have NO idea how or why. This was a 07 top and frame on an 01 body and I was using Modfry straps. It was working for about a 1/2 year then BAM it broke while I was putting it up. So do I now need ANOTHER new top or can I just replace the back window?

The rear glass window is bonded to the top so it's not possible to replace the window without replacing the whole top.
I would also suggest finding out the cause of the damage in order to prevent the same thing from happening again once your replace the new top. Check the snaps for attaching the tonneau cover if it catches the glass as well as the rear windscreen (if equipped)
