Hi guys and girls, new to the forum. My Dad and I have had our Elan for a couple of months now and it's fantastic! Unfortunately I was driving it the other day with the top up when the fabric suddenly tore away from the frame immediately behimnd the passenger side window. It looks as though it was glued to the frame originally (or a previous repair?). Does anyone know how I should go about sorting this? Can I just glue it back onto the frame? If so, what kind of glue should I use?
Thanks, Jon

Same thing happened to me 3 years ago . I used sikaflex 291 in black to do a quick fix . Still holding strong . If you decide to use sikaflex take your time and dont be tempted to use to much .Also it gets everywere and is difficult to clean off .
