I believe these clamps (or similar) are the other missing piece to getting it to hold: https://www.amazon.com/Sealey-Suctio...8976968&sr=8-7
And then you complete the gluing process section by section. |
When I was (briefly) considering a DIY job on my second issue, I also had those same clamps in my Amazon cart. IIRC, the video suggested a double order of them, so you can put them really close together.
Personally, I would
probably give the $350 pro job a try, understanding it may fail fairly soon (and provided he’s willing to actually do it). I think it would hold up better than he thinks, provided he doesn't tank the job since he wanted to sell you a top and you didn't bite on it.
My window (as mentioned) has now been fully sealed and is doing fine. Not winning any beauty contests, but neither am I!
