It is getting cold and my vinyl convertible roof has shrunk to the point where I can not put it up!
I have been unemployed for 1 year and can not afford to buy a new one...
Does anyone know any softeners retail, commercial, industrial or otherwise that I can use to soften and stretch my vinyl top?
I am really desperate!!!
Thanks!

Get a job and don't be a desperado.
If you ever get cancer, don't come looking to me for any sympathy you self-centered, narcissistic prick.

Why don't you trade it for a Golf or Jetta? The insurance is cheaper, and the roof generally doesn't shrink.
Vinyl's got a limited lifespan.
If it's that far gone and the weather's going to stay colder then you're stuck. Replace the top.
You could try a vinyl conditioner I suppose, but I don't think it will help much. I would try warming the roof up, to soften it. See if you can find a warm garage, or a sunny spot where you can partially open the roof and expose it to the sun.
Good luck finding work in this economy -
I agree...park it in the sun for an hour or two and let it get warm and then try and close it.
You funny. Me laff.
I have testicular cancer, thank you. Both of my parents died from cancer.
Sell your car, get a job AND shut the f*ck up.
