Would anyone know any place that could fit a rear window for me, I have a slit in my window and have a replacement but it will need to be sewn on, anywhere around Munster would be best but il go further if I need

Hello Kieran
Do you know of any place where they mend/make sails for boats ,seems to me to be the same materials ie heavy canvas ,plastic etc.would it be an idea to glue the window in using silicone sealer ,save the sewing .
Would only work if the window is bigger than the opening
Good luck with it
Brian

Thanks, I might even have one of them spare myself, it's just the sewing of the plasticwindow onto the roof is where I'm stuck unless I do something like what Brian was saying and glue it on with a really strong weatherproof glue
