    seeing some one do this makes me a lot more confident about sewing my windshield back in

      Thanks. 👍 Just make sure you have a couple of free days and that would do it.

    My window is actually coming away from the stitching so this is a great help

      are all Z3 windows zipped in? Mine looks sewn in ?

      Stock, should be zipped in. If sewn in, than somebody did it afterwards.

    I need a new window but seems like everyone wants the top off the frame

    Hi Sir Thanks for this video my Z3 has torn stitches on both sides of the door. Can I apply your sewing technique. Thanks & Best Regards

      You are welcome :) Of course, if the needle and the pliers are strong enough. All the best. Alex

    tried this, massive pain in the butt. and you can't get around the roll bar. It worked on the side of my window but along the horizontal back it was not reachable.

    • @alexandmachines

      Yeah. I think the best way is to take out the screen, unzippit and then saw, then put the plastic screen back. I have to change the plastic screen anyway and will do another video for that alone. If i can unzippit and do it myself.

    He didn't use the thimble and he used the wrong color thread. Why???

    • @alexandmachines
      @alexandmachines  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was an option :) Black matches everything :))

    Looks great! How is it holding up now?

      Thank you! Yes, still good. Now I need to change the plastic window itself - they crack after 15 years so a new video incoming :)
