Some advice please, the windscreen rubber comes adrift along the top edge when the top is down, any suggestions as what I should use to stick it back in place.
Thanks in anticipation

Give the seal and body a good clean and then apply clear silicon to the grove before pushing trim back in. Secure with masking tape for a few hours and keep it dry.

That sounds like good advice from Mad Mitch. It's important to get a watertight joint. I had a problem with water seeping in round mine. This can result in a milky stain appearing at the edge of the windscreen.
