Advice - soft top roof repair?

Hi there,

 

I noticed that there was some wind noise coming from the drivers side and upon further inspection, it appears that there are a couple of small marks on the roof. Air is obviously getting in but there doesn't appear to be any signs of water coming in. Im thinking that I should address this issue sooner rather than later as the issue may get worse if left (especially over winter).

 

I approached a local guy who advertises convertible repair and he has quoted £20 to put some patches in....presume they are just standard sticky water resistant patches that are flexible. I could probably find them and do it myself.

 

Upon further inspection I noticed that the stitching is coming away.

 

Does anyone have any experience of these type of issues and how best to address? Can anyone recommend anyone local to Basingstoke/ Hampshire?

The roof on the 350 is prone to pulling and leaking, had it on mine and seen it on lots of others.

 

Replacing the roof can be expensive so i would have some patches added. Stormsure glue is perfect for it or get that professional to help. Mine held up for a year when i sold it on, then if it gets worse look into a replacement.
