Rear Window Zip Broken

Zip has broken. Started off with the teeth separating but the carrier/zip with handle broke off whilst I tried to reopen it.
The hood & window is in reasonable condition so I wondered what options there were? Ideally I would like to repair the existing zip, but I guess I need another carrier. I would consider another complete hood for the right price, I'm afraid I can't afford one from someone like MGF Mania though.

Anyone got any other thoughts?

If not the Zip Carrier, in the previous post, either way no sewing involved

I've just had my zip slider on the newly acquired TF break, it had completely jammed up solid, and it was getting dark; so I was rushing. I just tried to gently part the slider with a thin screwdriver and it snapped.
I actually thought I was going to have to replace the complete window, but I have managed to source a couple of sliders from MGf Mania and now awaiting their delivery. Hopefully it will be a cheap repair, but I will make sure that the zip gets at least an annual lubrication from now on.

Yea, worked for me....MGFMania told me to lubricate with various things, graphite, candle wax, furniture polish

well done...nice cost effective fix...

Yep all done, slider plus spare were exact replacements from MGFMania; so cheap successful repair. Added lubricate zip to six monthly service to help stop it jamming.

ill lubricate my zip soon..good tip that :broon:

Gosh Yes, never thought of lubing my zip, good call.
