Mk 4 Rear window liner detached.

Just had my first niggle with my ND.

Was dropping the roof to take advantage of some lovely sunshine when I heard a slightly odd noise as it went down. Carefully pulled it back up and found that the interior liner had detached from the top of the rear window frame.

It seems to be some sort of lip/hook arrangement on the window frame that the interior liner hooks onto the length of.

My wife is a little more dextrous than I and was able to get it all hooked back on.

Thought I'd share it in case others have seen similar or have advice on how to avoid it - other than being extremely gentle when getting the top down?

Do you know if there's any sort of reference number for the bulletin? I've got the car booked in for the 19th to get sorted, but they didn't seem very aware of any known issue when I rang even though I explained it.

Thanks - all fixed. Nice unobtrusive strip of plastic along the top of the seal now holds everything in place. I can't see that coming undone easily.

Update: Despite the fix, it broke again. My garage are going to try and get in touch with Mazda to find out what's going on.

Allegedly they ordered clips the first time. I couldn't see any sign of a clip, but there did seem to be a new strip of material along the top of the window that created a firmer seal when the liner was in place. However the hook that runs along the top can still unclip, so I'm not sure if they applied the proper fix or not.
