Convertable Roof Renovation

The plastic windows on the convertable roof were not too bad but needed a good clean and had started to go milky:




Unfortunatly there are also a small nick on each side window. This isnt big enough to worry me for now, so I dont consider a new roof to be necessary.

In addition I also added new seals on the top of the window frame where the roof clips into. These seal the area to prevent water ingress and often degrade and not replaced - They are only a couple of pounds each from a Mercedes Dealer and well worth fitting. Part number A1076880097 and you need two:




I bought a product called Hindsight () after seeing adverts and recommendations in the various Mercedes magazines.

Hindsight is a polish you work into the cleaned plastic windows;




And this is the final result. A HUGE improvement & I'd recommend this product to anyone.





The actual fabric of the roof was also cleaned to a nice uniform black.
