Convertible top main frame broken

Thank you for the summary of options to date! I have a 2017 and my top just broke last weekend. Can anyone provide any updates as to the class action lawsuit or other options that have not been discussed here?

Look for a used one from eeebay or Junkyard, that's the best option to go with.

@Brueggy4

Did you ever get yours fixed?

My dealer said they can't even get the kit anymore, not that I would pay the $15k or whatever for one. They are asking around town for advise on a repair.

The best I've heard so far is cut the end of the "hinge" off, fabricate a replacement plate and bolt it on. Not sure if thats doable with the top still on the car. There's room but not a lot, to work in.
