Soft top window cracking & a hole
Can the plastic windows be replaced? The top is in good condition otherwise. Any recommendations on a cheap, temporary repair? Clear tape of some kind?

Here's a link to a site that sells window replacement kits:
http://www.r129motoring.com/R129M_St...uct=3&category=
I have never used them because they won't provide the instructions online prior to buying the kit and I would like to know in advance whether or not I'm capable and willing to do it.
