Hi, I am keen to hear from members how to CORRECTLY replace the zip rear window section on a mx5 1996 Gleneagles `soft-top`.
Many thanks,

Jacques

Not entirely sure. I've replaced a whole hood before. I guess for the rear section you'd need to undo all the rain rail bolts, remove the rear of the hood from the rain rail. Unzip and separate the rear section. Zip in the new section and tuck the hood back into the rain rail and do up all the bolts.

Why the duplicate thread?
Did you post on the Mazda-mender forum as I suggested?

I replaced the rear zip section using the instructions in this book:
