old top off - what to do next?

[luluchiboy]

OK so I decided to replace the top. It was quite easy to take off. the front was glued to bow a. 2 wires needed to be cut from the front. the sides i had to remove 2 screws on each side. the back was just glued on and the 2 wires were removed.

Wasn't too bad. Now I want to install a new top.

1) Do I just glue the top on with 3m adhesive? cause that was they way it was put on before...?
2) Where can I buy NEW weather stripping in the USA?
3) I did not take off the top FRAME. is that necessary?

Thanks in advance.

I've had a quick look through a number of posts but can't seem to find one where someone describes the process. Lotus Girl Marie installed her own top some time ago to great success. You might want to do a search for posts with this title or message LGM directly.
