All said they dont know how to deal with this. I called a few auto upholstery places and two out of the three were out of business. The one that wasnt said they cant warranty the work so there for they recommend replacing the whole top.... WHAT

I am not a seamstress and it seems like this should be fixable.

Any suggestions

Sadly, I just posted about this the other day. It can be repaired professionally if it's not too far gone. If you're in a big metro area just call around to find someone that will do top repair. When you do, see if they can reinforce the stitching on the other side. Otherwise, you'll replace the roof/window as a unit. Mine arrived in two days and I just need to schedule the install at the dealer. Good luck to you!
