Reply to "Top is Falling Apart"

Many replica tops are made of vinyl, especially older CMC/Fiberfab.

Good old DAP contact cement works.

Quick instructions: Take it all apart at the header, then stretch it as much as possible over the installed and clipped-on header. I used LOTS of blue wide masking tape on the windshield. 

Mark it on the inside where the top meets the header with chalk.

Remove all, coat the top AND the header with contact cement. WAIT the required time. Stick them together, and fold the excess into the header. Re-install your rubber strip.

It helps to do this on a warm and sunny day, especially when stretching the vinyl.

Cheers.
