Morning Zeus
I've a similar problem with mine ( a very small 1.5 inch crack at the top of the LH window) and I've been going to do something about it for ages !!!!
We ( in the UK) have several companies who will re-sew new plastic windows in soft tops ( about £270 Stirling for all three I seem to remember) which included removal and re-fitting - I've no doubt that someone in the US will come along here soon with a more local operative, BUT in the mean time I've glued a small piece of soft clear plastic (using Gorilla glue) over the crack.
As I rarely have the top up anyway and my repair is watertight and reasonably flexible I'm not really in a hurry to spend the cash on replacement windows.
I guess it all depends on how big the crack is and how much you're concerned about how it looks
