new top and boot ordered today!

I love the fact that some people dive head first into this kind of thing and learn. Now Im kind of tempted to try it my self too!

@Dennis Gerard would you measure the new glass and compare it to your OEM glass. I too have heard some manufacturers use a smaller / generic glass for their windows.

looking forward to the results and what went well and what not so much.

None of the manufacturers use the correct glass. I have had one redone with my original glass, but I don't know which company did the job. Some are afraid of it. One of the problems with the Le Baron convertibles was delamination of the rear glass from the vinyl. Every upholstery shop I talked to said that it couldn't be repaired. I used black RTV with the top loosened. Taped it up for a day and they never came apart again.
