Does anyone know who manufactures canvas tops with zip-out rear window? I thought this would be a good solution for not having to replace the entire canvas top when the rear window yellows or cracks.
Thanks

Canvas Top with Zip-Out Rear Window
Miklos,
When my rear window fades or yellows, I've had good success using NuVinyl cream. I believe that still comes in an orange, plastic, oval container. Cracks are another matter.
Regards,

Sorry, didn't mean to sound sarcastic...more tongue-in-cheek than anything.

Patrick ÔÇô I appreciate the link but not your sarcastic comment! I was hoping for a response from someone with personal experience buying and using this type of soft top.

This took all of 4 seconds to find on Google....you do know how to Google, right?

Electron Top makes a very nice canvas top with a zip out window. I installed a dark blue top (special order) on an E last week. Even had a choice of interior material color. I understand they supply tops to some of the regular Jag suppliers - without the price mark up. The zip-out is still integral with the rear of the top, so you can't replace it separately. You don't get crease lines in the plastic if you zip it down before putting the top down.
