||| At $400.00 I couldn't resist. What is the best way to

||| for these, or any idea what DC would ask for them?
||
|| Depending on the size of the cut/hole, all the following
|| have been *very* successful on my TJ. Top is 6 years
old,
|| and still water tight:
||
|| Rubber Cement (still there, still water proof)
|| Super Glue (ditto)
|| Sew it up, then super glue (ditto)
|| Super Glue Gel (ditto)
|| Clear packing tape (ditto) (hardly can tell its
there..rear
|| side window) (put it on both sides)

Funny thing is, you can't tell...a tribute to my skill? or a
tribute to the stuff I use to fix it?

I use a plastic polish from Autozone...in a blue bottle,
name sounds generic, but it works like a champ...the 'ooze'
