So, I just completed this project. Not too difficult. I just have a few suggestions and confirmations about what has already been shown: 1: Definitely have a helper. It will take several times longer without a helper. 2: If it is possible to provide a wider seal tape, please do. It is a bit narrow, and could definitely be wider to cover more area. I received a spool that had twice the length I needed, but I would rather it have been twice as wide, though it could be doubled up (side by side). That however, would be a bit more tricky. 3: As shown, start the seal tape at the bottom of the window. 4: If the rubber lip that the canvas slips into is old and cracked, you're going to have a bad time. It needs to be pliable. That's all I have
Wollte das bei meinem E36 machen… wie habt ihr das sofort hingekriegt, dass die Scheibe sofort passte? Ich muss seit Stunden immer wieder neu ansetzen, weil es immer um Millimeter zu weit links oder recht ist, sodass die Reißverschluss-Zähne sich an einer Stelle nicht mehr greifen können. Immer wieder neu ansetzen raubt mir die Nerven, weil es extrem schwer ist, den Zipper einzuhaken 😬
Hatte das gleiche Problem bei meinem E36. Waren zu zweit und 2 Std später hatte es dann endlich geklappt. Der Reißverschluss hätte aber nicht mehr viele Versuche mitgemacht. Dachte auch mir brechen gleich die Finger ab😁
@@miklovelka1 es hat damals auch erst Stunden später geklappt. Und die Nähte des Reißverschlusses sind aufgerissen, sodass ich dann erstmal das wieder nähen musste. Ich flippe selten so sehr aus als an dem Tag, an dem ich diese Scheibe einsetzen musste 🤣
@@FlyingCall Fühle ich zu 100%😅 Beim ersten Einsetzen ging 1. immer der Reisverschluss auf, und an der letzten Ecke ist dann der Reißverschluss vom Verdeck abgerissen. Nach sehr sehr vielen Versuchen und immer wieder Reißverschluss neu Einsetzen + viel Heißluftfön saß die Scheibe dann...Junge... nicht nochmal. Und alleine ist das nicht zu empfehlen, mach ich nie wieder ohne Hilfe, auch wenn es irgendwie funktioniert hat.
We just tried this. Got the zipper attached from inside but could not get the window to line up. It was off center. A couple hours later gave up. Wish there was a more detailed video with speaking for tips.
Word of warning to all as stupid as myself. So I removed the rubber weather stripping and it created an opening into my car right away. So I put my plastic knife in there and started removing the window. It came out nice and easy. Problem was it was already a replaced zipper window not the original. So I removed the zipper along with the window. The gap I saw was between the top and the factory zipper system. Sadly it was not sewn in. Just glued in and pretty shitty in fact. Came right off. Didn't realize til I went into the car and the zipper I saw before was gone. *sigh* So ya want to have a great time. Try reinstalling the OEM zipper then putting the window in. Ugh. But its done and looks great.
hello ive just purchased new window for megane 2002 from ebay store, think I'll struggle with supplied paper instructions (the video seems a lot easier) unsure if I should try it 🙈
Do all years/models of the z3 have the zipper? Tried to replace my window today on my 97' z3, but could not find the zipper. Just looked like it was sewed in.
i have a mustang and i dont want to go to a shop to stick my convertible canvas back onto the window so where can i buy that double sided tape, great video by the way seems as simple as the video looks
Mehmede ,zanima me da li se još uvijek bavite ovim poslom i kako vas mogu kontaktirati . Posjedujem bmw z3 98god i želio bih da promjenim zadnju sajbu na platnenom krovu. Pozz
There is a clip originally that has two parts. One inside that lines up with the one outside and clips to each other. Also you want to run some heavy thread in and out of the top to secure the zipper so you can remove the zipper pull without the risk of it unzipping, if that makes sense. Then reclip it.
+Blanche Gray Hello Blanche the Zipp system you have on many types of cars. when you have Original Top you have a Zipp window System. Look inside your car around the window if you have zipp.
So my z plastic just broke where did you get that one and so clear 😳❤️ I can’t find the zipper window plastic without the soft black top around it I just need the window part.
Hi, You make this look so easy. I have just purchased a rear window for my Z3, but it does not include the zipper or what looks like double sided tape that you seem to be fitting . Are these extras available to purchase on ebay or else where? Stefan
If I cut my window it's a zipper inside?? I ask because I tried to feel with my fingers the zipper head but I can't feel anything it's completely plain
Thanks for the video .
It took me 50 mins to do .
Looks fantastic now !
Thanks for your Info ;-) Yes it is very easy
E brate moj ja sam ovo sam zamenio na e36, probilo me 6 znojeva, a ledja mi otpadoše 😂 Inače, video je super 👌

Do all years/models of the z3 have the zipper?
Tried to replace my window today on my 97' z3, but could not find the zipper. Just looked like it was sewed in.

Der Reißverschluss Schieber is der auf der neuen heckscheibe drauf?
At 1:47 of video, what is the person inside doing? Is that the clip that was taken out earlier being replaced or is he staring zipper?
There is a clip originally that has two parts. One inside that lines up with the one outside and clips to each other. Also you want to run some heavy thread in and out of the top to secure the zipper so you can remove the zipper pull without the risk of it unzipping, if that makes sense. Then reclip it.
