Hi Tealbird!
I got the tips to use front windows sealant...
it doesn't really solidify completely.
Worked for me for a while - had to redo it after a while though
Dont push the top all the way down... leave it up 1 inch.

My high mileage Bird had the fabric separating from the glass. I simply cleaned the glass real good, and carefully
scraped any glue on the fabric off so there would be a good bonding of the glue. I used some cut boards inside to
hold the glass firmly and used some small bricks outside to hold the fabric down. I used some GE 35 year clear
silicone as glue. This was two years ago, and everything is holding together great.
When I glued the window, I had the top up but not latched so there would be a little slack in the window.

I have the same problem. I've looked around the internet quite a bit. Just starting mine now. Taking a last look around for any tips. I'm going to try Sikaflex P2G and the suction clamps sold on Amazon and elsewhere. I'll update.
