My guess would be that you could have the top patched at the dealership or goto any company that specializes in convertible top replacement.

I used some basic contact cement and an iron on patch. Contact cement brushed on both the top and the patch, let them dry for 15 minutes and stuck the patch to the top. Taped off around the patch so I could apply the cement in the right place. Stuck a 2nd patch over the first for extra measure. Total cost about $5.00.

Had I not been reading through past threads would not have known of the problem. Thank you S2ki!!!!!!!!!!

Patch, then buy the soft top interior liner to hide the patches?

Although someone in the business of designing convertible tops might think that which is installed in the s2ki is a work of art, I have better things to do than get a stiff neck inspecting mine. You cannot notice the patch from the outside and with a black magic marker you have to know what you are looking for to even notice it. The key is to find them before they become major.
