Hi. The stitching has come away between the back window and the fabric. I've gone online and tried to find someone to repair it (fairly local) but to no avail. Can anyone please help. We live in Wakefield. I've attached some photos of the damaged roof.

Many thanks
Dean

Time to replace the roof in all honesty if funds allow. Jack Smith Trimmers in Swansea are the most cost effective option on here going on members comments.

There’s another supplier in Croydon?, I think. A different option might be a second hand roof from a breaker and fit yourself?
Im not aware of any supplier/fitters “up north”.

Tony.

ps. Either one would be a fair trip unless you could turn it into a break?

I would have a word with Soft Tops in Coventry. That’s his sort of thing and it’s potentially saveable. But you’ll end up paying best price of a new roof from Jack Smiths which are £350 currently but long waiting list.

I second the Soft Tops in Coventry if you're just having the window stitching sorted. They did mine a few years ago, replaced the window and stitched the frame where needed. The chap dropped me off and picked me up from the nearby motor museum so I wasn't kicking my heels whilst it was being done.

If can fully recommend STC, they re fitted mine a couple of months ago, did it while I waited.

Thanks. Might just sell my z3 instead of the hassle. Been thinking about selling it for a while as I hardly use it.
