Bellows zip repair

Scultura · Sep 10, 2025

Proud new owners of an 06' T5 California and have been parking through some minor repairs but now have a big one an am stuck.

The zipp on one of the windows on the roof bellow is broken and the window cover will not stay in place. The previous owner would tape the window cover in place during cold nights but we need something more permanent.

Happy to do without the luxury of opening and closing the cover if someone has a good suggestion on how we can easily fix this.

Ooh tricky one. Difficult to fix without removing the bellows I would imagine?
Sail maker/boat canopy makers?

Do you have a photo or a more detailed description of what part of the zipper is broken? Might make it easier for someone to suggest a solution. (Is the pull broken or the part that slides through the 'zipper slider', has it come off teh zipper slider, etc.)
