Hello Steve, 

Thanks for being in touch. 

Re. bonding the screen? Google Classic car Trimmers in your area - they should be fully equipped to deal with that for you. If you cannot find any trimmers, then it’s worth asking one of the principals at a local classic car club.

Kind regards,

Gareth. 

Hi Gareth. Thanks for your reply. 

I did think of that (sort of).... my neighbour and his dad have a couple of old Classic Austins and did ask him, but he didnt know anyone. I was thinking about getting a plastic one sewn in, if it couldn't be bonded back in... until I can safely afford a new roof skin. 

Hi Everyone

Newbie here and have searched the threads, but cannot find The answer.

I have a 2009 A5 Ragtop and, as it's just a summer and weekend car, I parked it last October until January.  The rear glass had become unbonded from the roof material and water had got into the boot area... a LOT of water,,,, you can imagine the damage.   The roof also stopped working, but after 5 hours with a diagostic computer that was rectified with a new sensor that had corroded.   

The main question I have, seeing as now the whole glass is just hanging in on a wing and a prayer and lots of duct tape ...Has anyone had any success repairing / refitting/ rebonding their rear glass? - I'm sure I can't be the only unlucky sufferer.

Also, water got into the amp and an electronics friend is trying to repair simply because I've ben unable to find one on eBay or a salvage yard.  The numbers on mine are 8F0 035 223 A     I have found others that look similar but wondering if anyone knows if they would be compatible?

Thank you (in advance) for any advice Guys (& Gals) - Steve
